Hand Injury Tendon Repair (Hand) MRI Scan (Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan)
Mr Adel Tavakkolizadeh. Was very professional and polite. I was explained everything in details of the possible damage at the time of the consultation. An MRI was needed doing to make a clear decision, was also arranged by the Cosultant.
Read moreFor me Mr Tavakkolizadeh has been an excellent physician and he is most knowledgeable (which I know for a consultant is expected). More importantly is the way in which he quickly puts you at ease. This enables him make a more accurate diagnosis. I feel he has a genuine interest in his patients and I would whole heartedly recommend him C A Smyth
