- Mr Jalgaonkar was very professional, easy to talk to and did a great job with my hip replacement. It's healing well and I'm so happy I had the operation. Thanks to the hospital staff and Mr Jalgaonkar for the care I received.
- Outstanding treatment befor and after the operation, great follow up service and excellent communication throughout
- I was very happy with Mr Azal Jalgaonkar and his team before and after my hip replacement procedure under the N.H.S.I would definitely recommend him and have decided to go private for future treatment.
- Mr Jalgaonker has transformed both of my knees now, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! I was convinced I would need new knees due to the pain I was in with arthritis, but Mr Jalgaonker has worked his magic, cleaned up the knees and given them a new lease of life. Pain free and walking normally for the first time in 2 or more years! Thank you Mr J!
- Excellent surgeon - no issues with my hip replacemnet and delightred with the outcome.
- Absolute first class, professional. Mr Jalgaonkar is one of the best Dr I have met.
- Having had a left total hip replacement two years ago which didn't go well, my right hip replacement has been such a different story. Mr Jalgaonkar was absolutely brilliant, great sense of humour but very professional. Walking with no crutches by six weeks with no pain. Would absolutely recommend him and the staff at the Nuffield, Guildford who were all so friendly and kind.
- first class service, both from Mr Jalgaonkar and the Nuffield Hospital in Woking. Everything was done to make my short visit comfortable and the surgery and follow-up was excellent.
- Absolutely first class professionalism. My husband in 2016 and me this October 25 owe Mr Jalgaonkar an immense debt of gratitude for the exceptional work done to get us both back to health. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Jalgaonkar. Including The Med Team.
- I have the greatest respect for Mr Azal Jalgaonkar, my treatment at Mount Alvernia was first class . Mr Jalgaonkar and all the staff were very professional, supportive and friendly. Before my procedure on Sept 3 I was in extreme pain and now I’m totally pain free. Thank you.
