“My mother was under the treatment and care of Mr Sudhakar Gopal for several weeks following a major hip operation. He has been fantastic in the way he treated her. Their service was professional yet caring. They even conducted house visits for her treatment after she was discharged from the hospital. Mr Gopal and his team treated my mother and our family with dignity and respect, and they communicated regularly and clearly with us in terms of her treatment and progress. We can recommend him without any reservations. Thank you to Mr Gopal and his whole team. 5 star treatment! Thank you!”
“I went to Sudhakar with so much confusion about the excruciating pain I had on my right knee. From the very first session, I was really satisfied with how he was able to explain what was causing the pain in my knee at first glance. He used one of his knee models to do this, which made me fully understand what was going on. I’ve been to two sessions already and I can say that my pain has improved, to what seemed to be an 8/10 to 3/10. I am very happy with my sessions. I totally do recommend him.”
