Ramon was fantastic. Expert in his field. Did not recommend surgery on my hand because he thought it could heal on its own and it did. Super grateful to have not undergone unneeded surgery. Recommended me to a great hand therapist that I saw twice per week. Really excited about the progress of my recovery under his supervision

Ramon Tahmasebbi is very easy to talk with and understand. Before my surgery he explained my choices, and what to expect. I first tried a cortisone injection into the thumb joint that was causing me great discomfort. He said that the relief could last a month or a year or two. It lasted about three weeks. He explained my various surgical options. I fully understood the choices after having spoken with him. I had also checked with the Cleveland Clinic in Westin Florida to see about doing the same surgery there. The joint replacement I had done in London is not yet FDA approved, and so not available in the US. The hand surgeon in Westin said that were he me, he'd have the specific joint replacement that Mr Tahmassebi did for me here in London. Every detail of my hospital stay and the surgery was comfortable and gave me great confidence. It feels cleaner and less chaotic than my experiences in Florida. I now have full use of the thumb that was causing me great discomfort.

Dr Ramon has been amazing with the treatment of my carpal tunnel. From day one he has been friendly, professional and talked me through every aspect of the treatment. The surgery was 100% painless and recovery has been very straightforward. I cannot recommend him highly enough if anyone needs similar treatment.

I was attended to by Mr Ramon Tahmassebi due to issues of dexterity and strength issues with my hand. The observations and discussion between us were clear, concise and revealing. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Tahmassebi as excellent in his field.
