Mr Patel replaced my shoulder joint. I was in so much pain and unable to sleep and do so many things. Straight away I was out of pain, I was supported throughout my recovery and I would recommend Mr Patel to anyone who needs this operation. He is a caring and charming man who I trust 100%. I have had my new shoulder for a year now and I am so grateful that I was able to Mr Patel for being my Doctor.

I saw Mr Patel following persistent and progressive shoulder pain over a 9 month period. The rehabilitation programme I had followed with my chiropractor after an MRI had not helped. Mr Patel listened carefully to my description of the history and carried out mobility tests, an ultrasound and arranged an immediate X-ray. After gathering all the information he explained the results and what could be done to alleviate the pain. I booked the surgery via his extremely helpful secretary, Mala for 10 days later. Mr Patel carefully explained the process prior to surgery and, most importantly, the fact that diagnostics do not necessarily show everything and that in 10-15% of cases a rotator cuff tear may be found during the arthroscopy. We allowed for this eventuality on the consent form. I’m thankful we did as a subscapularis tear was found needing repair. I have found Mr Patel to be patient, diligent and meticulous at all times and would not hesitate to recommend him.

Almost no post-operative pain and speedy recovery Excellent follow-up appointments with suggestions for physiotherapy. Post appointment letters helpful to me and to physio to target exercises.

Dr Patel offers thorough, meticulous medical examination to build a detailed picture where we are and then addresses the issue. He's very knowledgeable, experienced and his calm manner offers comfort and confidence. The medical complaint I sought help for has now been resolved. I'm very grateful to Dr Patel.
