What a fantastic Doctor. I tore three rotator cuff tendons one of which was extremely torn but he managed to fix all three and now my shoulder range gets better each day.
Throughout the whole ordeal Pre op and Post op Dr Polyzois explained everything in detail. The most thing that touch me was on the day of the op he greeted me in the reception area and asked how I was and reasured me beforehand.
Lovely Man.

I had a complicated fracture across my wrist joint. I was fortunate enough to be operated on by Dr. Polyzois. 4 weeks post op, I have better than expected recovery and range of movement heading towards a full recovery.
I am very happy with my treatment to date and thoroughly recommend Dr. Polyzois.

My first meeting with Mr. Ioannis Polyzois was on 6/11/2018 at St. PETER'S hospital, it was an appointment to view the results of my MRI scan on my right shoulder. He was very polite, and informed me straight away I would be needing an operation as my shoulder was a 'mess' one look at the screen and I had to agree it was not a pleasant sight. He informed me it had to be done by the end of the year, ideally it was an operation that should have already been completed. He wanted me to leave it with him to sort out the date. His calm and patient manner and tone of voice in explaining the 'finer' details of the operation, the recovery time and all the other relevant details physio etc. was excellent. I never once felt he was trying to 'rush' the appointment, he even wanted to know if I had any further questions, I asked him who was going to do the operation, he confirmed it would be him, I do remember saying 'good' - I had no idea he was an expert in this field of surgery, that came later, when friends decided to 'Google' his name and we saw his name in 'lights'! However from the moment I stepped into that room his calm and reassuring tone put me at ease, I must admit I am a ' nervous wreck' when I have to have a blood test!! Within 2 hours of seeing him I had a call from the hospital confirming the 14/12/2018 as the date of my operation. With a busy schedule of patients that day, he was able to sort out a date for my operation. What a caring and dedicated person, it is no surprise his patients hold him in high esteem, I have met a few of his patients, and even a relative of a patient who he still sees, they speak very highly of him, all referring to his caring attitude and patience. I have read some of the reviews and I see he has been given 5 gold stars, if it was possible, I have to admit a book of gold stars would be appropriate too!!!!

I fractured my shoulder after slipping on ice and was referred to Mr Polyzois for treatment. I was borderline op/non-op and after much consideration by Mr Polyzois and discussions with myself we agreed that we would go down the non-operative route. He recommended an extremely good physiotherapist, and with Mr Polyzois careful monitoring of my shoulder, and regular physio sessions I now have extremely good movement.
Mr Polyzois is an exceptional consultant, explaining the next stages of my recovery and the next steps forward, and always found time to answer any questions that I might have had.

I saw Dr.Polyzios after dislocating my shoulder for the 5th time. After successful surgery I’m recovering faster than ever and it has never felt better! Recommended to a great physiotherapy place also for further treatment and progress. Thanks again.
