He is a very nice doctor. However, your Imaging department is below any expectation. I am still waiting to have the X-ray and MRI done. They have lost the papers and never contacted me. It is all private. Appalling and unprofessional.
5
I am very happy with the result of the surgery. Mr Taneja and his team were really good at explaining the process and helped me after the surgery.
5
Dr. Taneja was great all throughout the entire process of my ACL Reconstruction + Meniscus Repair. He was very reassuring and fully explained about my injury and the surgery itself. Very attentive and would definitely recommend. I had my surgery at the London Independent Hospital and it was a great experience.
5
Dr Taneja carefully explained the procedure at each examination. He reassured me that the outcome would be positive and was present on the day of the operation. He followed up the procedure with personal appointments and ensured that I made a full recovery

Hugely available and attentive Doctor. I don’t know the specifics but he must be an excellent surgeon - fixed my knee. Thank you.
5
Dr Tarun was very friendly, approachable and he gave me peace of mind,I really appreciated his approach to issues. He was very convincing at the same time professional in his duties. I am very grateful to have been dealt with by him!
5
Everything was explained to me in detail in a clear and concise manner and all of my questions were answered with recommendations for the best way to proceed clearly stated where required. Mr Taneja has an excellent understanding of what is required and he is also extremely personable.
5
Mr Taneja carried the procedure brilliantly. The wound is healing nicely (better than others who have had a knee replacement). The whole experience was a painful one but hopefully worthwhile in the long run.
5
Outstanding service from start to end of treatment and care
5
Mr Taneja is highly skilled and very professional in his approach to work. He was my consultant for both my right and left knee replacement surgeries and did his best to help me. He also listened to my concerns with compassion and referred me for physiotherapy when he thought it was necessary. I am grateful to him for encouraging me to do my second knee replacement surgery because I really needed to do it since that knee was already very bad.
