Dr Johnson has changed my life with the carpal tunnel syndrome surgery performed on my left wrist. From having endless sleepless nights and excruciating pain, the surgery has dramatically changed my body and mind. I can now perform normal everyday tasks that before I couldn’t.
Dr Johnson is by far the most empathetic, proactive and professional doctor I have had the pleasure of being treated by!!
I am afraid of having the right wrist operated on, but Seeing Dr Johnson today has reassured me and put my mind at ease.
I want to sincerely thank Dr Johnson and the NHS for helping me, and do appreciate these services, which, without, I would still be suffering from a greatly debilitating condition.
Yours sincerely,
Stephen Hogg
Dear Mr Hogg Thank you for your kind words. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be very debilitating and the surgery usually gives significant relief. I am delighted that your surgery was a success and that you have been able to resume your every day activities and sleep! May the other side be just as successful. Kind regards Riem Johnson
Very friendly and excellent compassionate care
Thank you for your positive and kind words. I am glad I was able to reassure you.
Most helpful and friendly.
Thank you for your kind words. I am glad that your experience in my clinic went well and that you felt reassured.
Professional and caring. I hate injections and fainted before surgery. Mrs Riem Johnson put me at ease. I would highly recommend this clinician for another procedure.
Easy to talk to and listened to me. Explained everything well.
