Riem gave me aninredible level of care.
I broke my wrist 4 weeks before my wedding and when I came into royal sussex with it, she assured me that I would not be in a caste for my wedding.
Fearing that I had also broken a bone in my hand, she ordered that I have an MRI scan urgently. True to her word, I was booked in two days later.
Yesterday, two weeks before the wedding she allowed me to have my cast removed and to have a splint instead, meaning that I will not have to wear a cast in my wedding photo's.
Her kindness, compassion and understanding have really meant to world to me in an already stressful time.
Thank you so much Riem.
All the best,
Emily

Dear Emily, Thank you for your kind words. Your stable fracture meant that I was able to treat it in a splint rather than a cast and I am so glad that you are comfortable and happy with your management. I wish you all the best for your special day and future. Best Riem

I recently had trigger finger surgery and was lucky enough to be in the care of Dr Johnson. Right from the first meeting, to the surgery and following aftercare she was so personable, kind and obviously extremely knowledgeable. I never felt rushed at any appointment and all my questions and concerns answered. I would recommend Dr Johnson to anyone. Thanks so much.

Dr Johnson has performed operations for carpal tunnel syndrome on both my hands. Her charming and warm manner is immensely reassuring. As a surgeon she is efficient and skilled. My operation scars are minimal and the advice I received on after care was extremely helpful. I cannot praise her - and her team - highly enough.
