I have had two PRP injections following acute pain in my right elbow which resulted with many sleepless nights and stopped me doing my usual activities. I wasn't even able to pick up my light laptop a couple of months ago and was fed up with taking Naproxen and other remedies. After the two injections I am gradually feeling better and starting to use my elbow again. I am right handed so having the pain I have had for some time has been a major inconvenience and I am absolutely thrilled with the progress so far and can now start gradually doing more. I am really pleased I went down the PRP route as it is the only thing that has helped so far over the last 2 years. Just wish I was referred to Mr Polyzois sooner!

Very pleased how quickly I recovered from my wrist fixation surgery and how much strength and mobility I have regained so soon.

Was able to lead a `normal` life more or less 24hrs after the operation which was a surprise for me. Didn't need to resort to painkillers at all either. Now, 7 weeks after the op I was back playing golf and this week (week 8) I managed 2 full rounds. Some small discomfort but not a problem and am confident I will be pain-free within the next month or so. Well done!

After a fall on my shoulder Mr Polyzois performed surgery and I can categorically say that it has been an absolutely fantastic result. This shoulder now is by far the strongest one and I have no pain at all from it, whatever I am doing.
