Very bad experience with the doctor, 2 visit, each lastet 6 minutes, no willingness to answer my questions, no physical examination at all. Very poor care and once trying to contact assistant was never called back. My experience was bad.

I had microdisectomy performed by Mr Nitin Shetty last week and I would wholeheartedly recommend him. From the first visit he made me feel re-assured, speaking very confidently and firmly, presenting options and giving me his recommendation. I felt safe in his hands.

Mr Shetty performed a lumbar discectomy on my slipped disc, after referral from his excellent pain management colleage Dr Halfpenny at londonorthopaedic.com. Excellent "bedside manner", clear explanation of risks and possible complications, and a perfect outcome. Thanks again!
