Mr Armstrong explained my diagnosis and surgical procedure in detail. At no point did I feel uncomfortable and was able to ask questions. I am very thankful for his expertise.
Mr Armstrong gave a very clear and detailed description of my carpal tunnel issue, the procedure to be carried out to relieve the issue and post op recovery. It was obvious that he is an expert in this subject.
The procedure was carried out efficiently and with care.
I would certainly recommend him and trust him to repeat the procedure on my right wrist.
Mr Armstrong & his team made me feel relaxed and confident about my operation and the outcome has made an enormous difference to my life. A great team. Thank you ,
Dan recently performed carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand at Spire Hospital, Nottingham. Prior to the surgery I had been experiencing a lot of discomfort and pain in my hand in particular during the night resulting in broken/little sleep.
Three weeks post surgery, the pain and horrid pins and needles have gone and I can sleep at long last.
Dan has a superb bed side manner and made me feel at ease throughout the whole process. He's extremely talented and explained the surgery very well, he truly cares about his patients. I would personally like to thank Dan for his help, he really has changed the quality of my life for the better. He was very funny in theatre too :)
Kindest regards, Angela Shephard
