I received excellent care from Mr Karuppaiah. I felt very reassured from our first consultation after I had a cycling accident and broke my collarbone. Mr Karuppaiah clearly and simply explained what the problem was and what my options were. He didn’t push any particular route, but on the basis of his advice I chose to have surgery to have a plate fitted to the bone. Mr Karuppaiah did the surgery and I couldn’t be happier three months later, as I have full strength and mobility back. I would highly recommend Mr Karuppaiah as a skilled and competent surgeon.

I was referred to Mr Karrupiah when I was diagnosed with Dupuytrens Contracture. From the initial consultation to the the final post op consultation, Mr Karrupiah was excellent. His explanation of the issue, the process that would need to be undertaken and what it would mean for me was clear and understandable, and I was left in no doubt that I was in very capable hands. The operation itself was a complete success, and my physiotherapist advised that I had a text book recovery. I cannot have been more pleased with how everything went. Thank you

Mr Karuppaiah was recommended to me by my physiotherapist, he said he was on of the best and he has proven that indeed he is. I had rotator cuff repair surgery on my shoulder, at the London Bridge hospital, the surgery was a success, many things were repaired during the surgery, tendons, acromium, biceps... Etc. I would highly recommend Mr Karuppaiah he is an excellent surgeon, honest, professional, gives clear explanations in a calm manner, he listens, is caring and kind. I'm very grateful I had him as my surgeon. I hope he keeps having great successful surgeries. Thanks again for everything Mr Karuppaiah

It is with great pleasure to write a positive review about Mr Karuppaiah. An injury to my left wrist required open reduction internal fixation and ligament repair. NHS system failure resulted with me being recommended Mr Karuppaiah by my work private healthcare provider and he was very kind to see me online immediately and invite me to London Bridge hospital for surgery the very next day with thanks to his own practice and personal assistant. I was provided with clear information of what to expect and felt at ease despite the operation. Follow up appointments at local private hospital (together with necessary arrangements physiotherapy sessions elsewhere) have been easy to arrange and Mr Karuppaiah calm, professional manner and full support with my work has been excellent and appreciated. At such an early stage, 4 months into 12 month suggested full recovery period, I am well ahead of schedule and believe this is primarily down to the due care and attention Mr Karuppaiah provided in operating so successfully so quickly. I would not hesitate to recommend him for hand/arm assessment/procedure and thank him very much for where I am today.

I am grateful to have been treated by Mr. Karuppaiah after a complex wrist fracture. He is a very skillful and experienced surgeon who I found kind and approachable. I was very happy with the care I received at Kings College Hospital and London Bridge Hospital from him and his team.
