- Dr Mulla is very welcoming, kind and empathetic. He went out of his way to help me through the system. Throughout the nerve block procedure, he kept me informed at all times. Couldn’t be happier.
- When I first met Dr Mulla I was suffering from extreme pain and did not think I would be able to attend my daughter’s wedding which was in 5 days time. Obviously, this was a distressing position to be in. Dr Mulla was the first doctor I felt listened and, more importantly, really heard me. He prescribed several new medications and miraculously two days later my pain was bearable and I went to my daughter’s wedding pain free! I cannot thank Dr Mulla enough.

- Lovely man who we felt handled the situation well. Only thing that let's the Cobham down is lack of parking at the L&D but that's been a problem there for years sadly. Dr Mulla was a very nice chap indeed with thoughtful adviceDoctor's response -Thanks you for your kind comments. Best wishes with your health.
- It’s amazing how much less pain I’m in now over and above a year ago. The procedures I had both in my back and knees, I hope will obviate the need for more intrusive surgery. I’m so grateful to Dr Mulla.Doctor's response -Many thanks for your review. We aim to keep improving the service for you're benefit and that of the other patients and wish you well.
