I was having trouble walking any distance, sitting, getting up, climbing or descending stairs, A previous x-ray showed evidence of mild arthritis in my knees, which I was already aware of, and a blood test confirmed inflammation. Despite various prescribed painkillers nothing was helping.
I eventually took the decision to get an alternative opinion and am so pleased I did. I can't imagine why it had taken me so long. Within twenty minutes Dr Srirangan had determined, diagnosed and prescribed what would be required to alleviate my symptoms after months of pain......#myhero.
Dr Srirangan, has been quite engaging each time we meet for an appointment. He has made recommendations and has monitored progress.

Two weeks ago I eventually took the decision to get an alternative opinion and am so pleased I did. I can't imagine why it had taken me so long. Within twenty minutes Dr Srirangan had diagnosed, determined and prescribed what would be required to alleviate my symptoms. There was almost immediate relief after months of pain.
My hero.
Dr Srirangan is simply excellent. He has provided me with expert insight and has helped me with my condition. He has delivered all information to me in a concise and easy to digest way. I always try to educate myself when in the presence of experts and Dr Srirangan has been very open to sharing extra knowledge with me, that has better enabled me to get a stronger grip on the deeper mechanics of what is going on inside my body and how best to combat this.
I feel very confident in his ability to guide me through this part of my life and in many ways feel lucky to have found him. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.
The specialist was pleasant, curteous & focused on my complaint attentively..The physical examination was appropriate & thorough..
He had thorough knowledge of the subject and outlined the treatment specifically for my condition.
He was kind enough to send an email to me for readjusting the dosage of the medication to be prescribed by my G P for NHS supply due to side effects. Unfortunately there was a 48 hrs delay in me receiving the email.
