Explanation

Such a lovely, informative, helpful and caring consultant. Prof Kochhar fixed my battered shoulder in no time and I’m in a lot less pain since! He shared his expertise in simple terms, and provided me a clear pathway to recovery. I’d return to him in a heartbeat (but I hope I never have to).

Nice polite doctor. By my visit was a waste time because the treatment advertised on shoulderdoctor.co.uk hasn't been available for years. So it was a waste of time and money.

I have referred patients to them

I have worked closely with Tony, both referring my patients for orthopaedic opinions and receiving referrals from my colleague. Tony is a dynamic expert professional, very approachable and inspires confidence in patients he looks after. I have had excellent feedback from my patients that I refer and safety is his key approach. Tony has a brilliant academic stance towards his patient management which is so evident from his correspondence. Knowing when not to operate is a skill that my surgical colleague certainly has perfected ! Excellent colleague and pleasure to work with.
