I fell down a steep step and dislocated my shoulder and chipped a bone at the same time. I also injured my bicep muscle. I was away from home and the local hospital wasn't able to put my shoulder back, so I was transferred to another hospital who did put it back in place, but I was still in a great deal of pain as the bone was still broken. I returned to my home and visited yet another local hospital who said that I should probably have surgery, but were not keen to go any further as they said it would depend which trust would pay for it. Nearly a week had gone by this time and I wasn't getting any further and was in complete agony and unable to move my arm much at all, so I decided to try and arrange a private appointment and found Mr Phadnis operated from a hospital near by. I had an appointment for 10.30am one morning and with a lot of organisation from Mr Phadnis and the hospital, I had the operation that afternoon. I had a few problems with the bicep muscle to begin with and had a scan and steroid injections and I am pleased to say that ten months down the line, my shoulder is much improved, due to the excellent care I was given from Mr Phadnis. As well as being an extremely good surgeon, he is a very nice approachable person and I would recommend him to anyone who has a shoulder problem.
