to diagnosed
and back to the
life she loves.

Andrea, a patient of Mr Amit Kumar

“Back to table tennis, yoga & pilates, within three weeks.

In her own words

Three short films.
One patient journey.

01 · The concern

Choosing the right specialist, for a second opinion

After being told her issue was nothing to worry about, Andrea wasn't convinced. As a keen table-tennis player planning an active retirement, she could feel her movement being affected, so she researched the field and chose the specialist she rated most highly.

It was affecting my mobility and stopping me from moving freely. I wanted to see the right specialist.
02 · The treatment
Expert care, made effortless

A clear plan, handled from start to finish

The scan confirmed the diagnosis, and Andrea opted for surgery. From there, everything was arranged for her: the appointments, the procedure, the aftercare. She was also given a direct number to call if she had any concerns. As Andrea says:

It was really easy for me. I didn't have to do anything except turn up.
03 · The outcome

Table tennis, pilates, golf: back to all of it without any pain

Fully recovered, Andrea returned to everything she loves: table tennis without restriction, a yoga and pilates retreat, and her first full eighteen holes out on the golf course.

I felt my concerns were validated. I'm so glad I came to see the best specialist. I can't feel a thing.
