After needing an operation for a broken wrist, I soon developed shoulder pain and stiffness. I saw several physios and GPs which unfortunately made no impact. I was eventually referred to Dr Marwan. By this time my arm was affecting my quality of life really badly and it was starting to get me down. I couldn’t use deodorant or wash my hair. My husband had to help me get dressed. Sleeping was awkward so I was tired.

When I saw Dr Marwan he was so personable and it was an easy, nice, relaxing situation. He explained exactly what was going on (a frozen shoulder), what was causing the pain and what could be done about it. He offered me a procedure called a Hydrodistension. Dr Marwan explained what it was really clearly and what to expect. I had absolute faith in him and he made sure I understood exactly what was going to happen. I thought the procedure might be uncomfortable, but it wasn’t and I got instant relief.

Going from nothing to suddenly being able to lift my arm really high, it was just like a miracle. It’s given me my quality of life back; things were just back to normal.
