- Mr Manoharan was very professional, polite and kind when I had an appointment to see him about a shoulder injury. His detailed easy to understand explanation was excellent, and the plan to treat the problem was very clearly explained. He was very gentle with the way he treated my shoulder on the day. Nobody should be worried about an appointment and treatment.many thanks
