Here are what some of his patients say:
Mr Singh is a delightful chap who listens carefully to your story and then suggests how he can be of help to you. I felt very confident in his diagnosis and care
Dear Mr. Singh, A very happy coincidence to receive your email. I intended contacting you today to express my gratitude for your thorough approach and understanding of my difficulty in the right foot. At every step of the way you have shown a caring and professional approach accompanied by a very cheerful and honest disposition. In addition I would like to complement the hospital staff all of whom were both friendly and most helpful. With best wishes Anne
For years I have experienced pain and deformed feet due to my large bunions, horror stories of nerve damage and further pain post op were discussed from various people and hospitals , so I avoided even thinking about an operation , but after the long lockdown period I couldn’t walk for very long periods of time without having to remove my trainers. I am a 51- year old considerably fit and healthy lady, so enough was enough and a good friend of mine was booked into Dr Singh for a double bunionectomy so I asked for his contact details and went along for a chat . From the warm welcome and in-depth conversation I was booked in for a double bunionectomy two weeks later . The first week was painful but bearable and 6 weeks post op I am walking swimming and back to my everyday life . I still get swelling but that is to be expected from 6 weeks to a year . If anyone is debating to have this operation DO IT ! I wish I had seen Dr Singh earlier and had this 20 years ago !
