Well on the way to recovery

Mr Chan is a lovely, caring man who makes you feel totally safe in his care. My operation was a great success and I am well on the way to recovery.

Committed to his work

I spoke to Dr Chan, explaining the situation and not only did he keenly listen, he offered to see me immediately and booked me in for surgery a week later. Dr Chan was extremely knowledgeable during the consultation and showed a lot of empathy and kindness. The surgery went well. I would highly recommend Dr Chan to anybody who wants a surgeon who is committed to his work and actually cares for his patients.

The most effective and pleasant shoulder surgeon

Should you consider Mr Chan for shoulder surgery?  My experience strongly suggests YES for three reasons:
1. He listened to my experience to understand the physical problem and what issues it was causing in my daily life - he listened and did not interrupt, trying to put his spin on things, unlike previous surgeons I have seen. 
2. He used the latest techniques and most effective treatment for my condition. 
3. Most importantly, he advised on aftercare using a risk-based approach where I was able to negotiate what I wanted to do whilst knowing the risks.
Plus he is just a nice guy who you feel at ease with. I have experience with three shoulder surgeons and Mr Chan was the most effective and pleasant by a very long distance.
