I received excellent advice pre-operative information and my operation was successful with excellent outcome. Mr Somashekar is very personable and professional. He has a relaxing manner and gave confidence to me as his patient. I would definitely recommend him if asked.

8yrs after my ACL was repaired I tore it again; and although the NHS unfortunately let me down with appointment timing and an initial consultation and attempted diagnoses from a hip specialist, once I had my first appointment with Mr Somashekar he put everything right. Hes very knowledgeable, great bed side manner, and I felt really well looked after. He is a great asset to the NHS. Even after the surgery he has maintained great after care, and has managed to see me twice in 6 weeks due to a few set backs. He has a great positive outlook and always has a smile on his face. IF I happened to have any further knee trouble, I would pay private to see Mr Somashekar.

I had my first consultation with Mr Somashekar last year, and I found him to be very professional, and was very clear on diagnosing my problem, along with answering all my questions/concerns in a very clear manner. I have since received my hip replacement, of which was carried out by Mr Somashekar and I have received a post operative appointment, of which once again I found Mr Somashekar answered all my questions in a very caring and clear manner. Absolutely 100% care received from Mr Somashekar, before and after my operation.
