Following a fall on new years day & subsequent shoulder dislocation i was referred privately to Dr Karuppaiah.
MRI Scan revealed a whole host of problems. A laberal tear, also a loose piece of bone fragment in the socket. During key hole surgery to repair the labrum tear & remove foreign body Dr Karuppaiah also had to carry out a bicep tendonosis procedure.
I am now 8 months post operation. Recovery is going well. The shoulder feel very secure & i am gaining more trust everyday.
I am very happy with the outcome so far of the surgery i had done.
Thank you to Dr Karuppaiah & his Office team who where very efficient in dealing with any thing i needed.
Regards

Dr Karuppiah diagnosed and cured my trigger finger with a non invasive, pain free injection. Thanks so much for looking after me!

I suffered from Dupuytren’s contracture on both hands. This is where one or more fingers bend inwards so that it is impossible to put your hand flat on a surface. Mr Karuppaiah performed a fasciectomy on my left hand first, then right hand about 6 months later. From my first consultation, through both operations and the check-ups afterwards I felt confident in Mr Karuppaiah. I am delighted with the successful outcomes and highly recommend him.

I suffered from a lump in my handpalm which was carefully removed by Dr. Karuppaiah and received very attentive aftercare during the follow up appointments.
He was available after hours when I strained my finger too much post surgery and provided me with excellent advice over the phone and organised an appointment immediately the day after.
I would recommend everyone to visit Dr Karuppaiah in case of issues as you’ll be in very safe pair of hands!

I suffered a badly broken wrist, requiring a metal plate to be implanted. At every stage, both before and after, I found Mr Karuppaiah to be attentive, efficient, clear and considerate.
