I really couldn't have been luckier being assigned Dr Ravi. I had a missed scaphoid fracture, and given the quite bad prospects patients in this scenario often have, I was extremely concerned. He quickly identified the issue, and clearly explained the different types of surgeries that I could choose from. Not only did Ravi do an excellent job of the fracture reduction, but he did so in a manner in which only 3 months after the operation, I am able to return to sport climbing and training (including press-up variations which I was unable to perform before the op) 4x week with minimal pain. This was thanks to his clear guidance regarding my choice of surgery and the recovery prospects. He promptly replied to all my emails, gave me recommendations on Physiotherapy and answered all my questions during what was quite a stressful time period. I am especially grateful that he put up with my constant questions and most likely misused medical terminology as I was attempting to learn from medical journals as much as I could about this fracture... Most importantly, he seemed genuinely concerned, and remained optimistic throughout the process, which for a serial-worrier like me was practically the one thing keeping me sane! I couldn't be happier with the results.

I'm extremely grateful to have had Mr Malina operate on my arm. Not only that the operation was a great success, if it wasn't for him, I would not have been able to enjoy Christmas. He went out of his way to accommodate me in his busy diary and help me secure a place in Cromwell Hospital. My recovery was super quick, I did not need a cast, and was able to get on a long haul flight and enjoy my end of year holiday. Truly incredible!

I broke my finger a couple of months ago. Mr Ravi did an outstanding job in: - explaining the options available - setting out the pros and cons - listening to my concerns - performing an intricate, minimally invasive surgery in inserting a pin into the finger to straighten the fractured bone - to me, this required great patience and highly specialist skills as Mr Ravi wanted to avoid making an incision in the finger which would have required a much longer recovery period and made it difficult for me to travel straight after the operation - provided outstanding aftercare and replied to my emails promptly (I was out of the country during the key recovery period) - the finger is perfectly straight and the results are amazing Mr Ravi gave me absolute confidence that he was going to help me restore my finger to the best of his ability, and that he surely did! I am very indebted to Mr Ravi (and the nursing team at Shirley Oaks) for their professional care and outstanding surgical skills. Many thanks
