- Dr Sharma provided me with amazing support when I broke my wrist. He was very thorough with checks and I felt in safe hands. I would 100% recommend.
- my experience was poor with Mr Sharma, I consulted him in a devastating situation with a cat bite to my hand with tenosynovitis and a dysfunctional hand. In 10 minutes I was out of his consulting room being interrupted several times. No empathy and no 2nd opinion input givenDoctor's response -I sincerely appreciate your feedback. Your experience is very important to me, and I’m truly sorry to hear that the consultation did not meet your expectations. I understand that following your treatment at St. Peter’s Hospital on 19th June 2023, you were prescribed antibiotics and underwent an ultrasound that indicated no injuries or infections. When you came to me for a second opinion, I was pleased to reassure you that there was no cellulitis and that the mechanics of your thumb were functioning well. Recognising that navigating your recovery can be challenging, I suggested that you continue with your current treatment plan and consider hand therapy. I am here to support. Please know that my clinic is always open to all patients. Your health and peace of mind are my top priorities, and I am committed to helping you through this journey.
- Mr Sharma was friendly and welcoming, and helped me understand all the options available to me. My operation was quick and the staff I interacted with were brilliant. I would highly recommend him and . Thank you!
- Very thorough and explained treatment extremely well. Calm and pleasant manner. Would recommend.
- I found Mr Sharma to be very professional and he took the time to explain everything thoroughly to me. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and would use his services again should the need arise.
- So pleased with my experience with Mr Sharma, professional and informative till the end. The operation has been a resounding success and would highly recommend to anyone requiring hand surgery.
- Being treated by Mr Sharma was a wholly good experience, and I have no hesitation in giving five stars.
- Mr Sharma and his support team went far, far beyond excellence on all levels both prior to and following the surgery. Could not possibly recommend Mr Sharma more following both my treatment and results.
- Very good. I had high expectations, Mr Sharma did not disappoint. Given the circumstances COVID I can’t complain at all, a considerate and gentle approach. I had surgery on my hand which cured my issues and has healed really nicely.
