Mr Makki treated me for 4 problems.. a shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand pain.... I was treated immediately for shoulder pain (no waiting, there and then!), which was unexpected and really excellent! Pain improved dramatically in a few days too! Mr Makki accurately diagnosed my elbow problem (tests completed, problem gone), my hand (injection sorted that, problem gone! ) and my wrist (excellent advice today, and I fully expect great results to come). Without doubt, Mr Makki is world-class in his area, and I would recommend Mr Makki unreservedly. Mr Makki also listens well, and is very clear and articulate in his explanations, which makes each consultation effective and comfortable.

Mr Makki performed a joint fusion on my index finger that had been painful for years due to arthritis. He was caring, friendly, informative, and professional. The procedure was a total success and I am now pain-free and the recovery time was very quick too. The aftercare was always excellent I would 100% recommend Mr Makki. Thank you

I consulted Mr Makki with concerns about a bent ring finger that would not straighten and was becoming restrictive in what I could do. Mr Makki diagnosed Dupuytrens Contracture, and offered a prompt and economic treatment which has now been completed with 100% success. Mr Makki explained the condition and answered all of my questions with an easy manner. I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

After years of progressive shoulder pain affecting my sleep, with me being reliant on pain medication, Mr Makki diagnosed me with a degenerative ACJ. I am a very active individual, and the pain was beginning to affect my daily life too. Mr Makki went through all my treatment options in a clear, concise and professional manner. Sadly, the pain did not respond to physiotherapy, thus the next step was to try a steroid injection. This gave immediate pain relief and was fantastic for 6 weeks, allowing me to run a marathon relatively pain free. But sadly the pain came back. It was only when all conservative measures had been exhausted did Mr Maki suggest surgery. The surgery was keyhole, and I have been extremely pleased with the outcome. I have just completed 12 weeks of progressive physiotherapy and rehabilitation, and I am now back swimming, playing golf, and most importantly sleeping pain free. I cannot thank Mr Makki enough, and would not hesitate to recommend him.

I was very happy with the care I was given by Dr Makki, from the first consultation, the procedure and the final discharge appointment.
