Mr Murthy has been professional, kind and has explained everything to do with my shoulder resurfacing. He has answered all my queries and I would definitely recommend him. I have arthritis in my other shoulder too so if the need arises for another surgery then I hope he is my consultant. Thank you very much for the mobility and lack of arthritic pain now x
