Joint Care Clinics Avis 

I have been suffering with shoulder pain for 15 months following a bicycle accident and approached the Joint Care Clinic for ultrasound guided injection therapy as a way to return to my preferred sport of ergometer rowing. My initial telephone call with Ram was reassuringly positive as were the follow up text messages. I had an appointment in Oadby which consisted of an in-depth interview of my relevant medical history, together with a detailed explanation of the three processes which were available to me. The initial ultrasound examination (to locate the source of my problems and to identify the pin-point area into which the injection would be made) lasted an hour. The actual injections were an additional 30 minutes. I was extremely satisfied with the professionalism of the technician (Ram) and with the unhurried, detailed procedure. I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever of recommending Ram and the Joint Care Clinic. I have, in fact, booked a second procedure to address pain in my left wrist and hand.

Ram was very experienced and professional, but also showed great empathy for my situation. I always felt to be in good hands and at ease. He was very accommodating with the appointments, which took between 60 and 90 min. He gave me hydrodistention treatments for both of my frozen shoulders at a very fair price. Actually, it was the best money I have ever spent. The injections reduced the pain greatly and this made a huge difference in my quality of life, having been in constant pain for over a year. They also helped with the range of movement, which is nearly back to normal for my left shoulder and still improving for my right one, which was a very severe case. I just wished I would have come across him earlier. I am very grateful for his help and can highly recommend him.

After suffering with low back pain for over three years and no interest from my GP , telling me I had wear and tear at 31 ! I got in contact with Ram about a sacroiliac joint injection and could not have made a better decision to have this done by him. The service was thorough and fantastic. Three days have passed since I had the injection and still pain free even being able to put my own socks on again . I highly recommend Ram for any joint pain that anyone has. He has given me a new lease of life that I have been missing for so long .

After 2 years of suffering from a shoulder problem that included 2 steroid injections and 2 ultrasound scans through the NHS that didn’t find the cause of the pain, I was finally referred to Ram for a further scan. He immediately discovered a full thickness tear in my tendon that requires surgery. I am so grateful to him for doing such a thorough examination and succeeding where the others had failed. I can now go on and get the correct treatment for my shoulder at last.

I’ve had pain in my elbow on and off for 18 months. My doctors didn’t seem that interested when I went with my symptoms.
A month ago my elbow was in agony, you could just brush past it and I would flinch in pain.
As my doctors were useless I decided to do my research and I found Ram.
Ram gave me a thorough examination which included ultrasound. Ram diagnosed my condition.
Although the news wasn’t great, throughout the examination Ram was so professional, really taking his time, making sure nothing was missed, and describing his viewings whilst watching the monitor.
After some treatment and having an ultrasound guided steroid injection, I had instant relief and I am still pain free after a month.

I first went to see Ram in January 2020 with ball of foot pain. He took a lot of care to diagnose the problem and then gave me an injection to relieve the pain. This worked extremely well and I have just been for my second visit after 7 months for a top up. I have never been given this much relief when I visited my previous consultant. I would not hesitate to recommend Ram to anyone with joint pain.

I would like to recommend the joint care clinic, and would encourage anybody thinking about using their service to Contact them, it was my absolute pleasure to have dealt with Mr.RamaKrishna Rachaputi, he is very thorough, knowledgeable and compassionate , and I am extremely satisfied with the treatment I received and will be using the service should I need to

Ram treated me for an acutely painful shoulder injury sustained in a fall some months previously. He was meticulous in tracing the history of my injury and describing his diagnosis and proposed course of treatment. At every stage from diagnosis to Ultrasound to injections he was caring, sensitive and gentle, constantly checking that I was comfortable with the treatment being described and administered. Throughout, his attention to hygiene was exemplary.
The entire experience was professional and administered by a highly trained Practitioner. He even followed it up with a couple of e-mails checking my progress.
I have no reservations in recommending Ram's services to friends and family.

I would happily recommend Joint care clinics. I had an injection in my foot for plantar fasciitis. Ram scanned my foot with ultrasound and found the area that was inflamed. Then a local anesthetic was injected before the main injection which was guided by ultrasound. A week later after plenty of rest the foot pain was much better.

Saw Ram today, he is very knowledgeable and found 2 further issues that I wasn’t aware of, he was absolutely lovely and explained everything

The service from start to finished was excellent ram was a very genuine guy and explained everything that was wrong with my shoulder and the treatment he gave me as 100% worked im very pleased

I went to have infusion of the knee as my knee was rather painful, Mr Ram Carried out this successfully and efficiently checking every single area for any problems, spent a very long time looking at my knee To see where the problem was and what was needed to be done, perfect service and would definitely recommend to other people

Excellent service and follow up, thankyou!!

I had steroid injection in a very painfull knee and i don't like needles so was very apprehensive.the treatment and care i received was excellent and under the ultrasound another problem was found which was dealt with at no extra cost.i would recommend this clinic to anybody and could not find fault from the initial booking to the follow up aftercare phone call

I saw Ram for a cortisone injection in my hip as I previously had 4 months pain deep in the hip.

He was very quick in response and in seeing me and also for advice after the consultation.
The treatment provided during the appointment instantly healed the pain and still pain free months after.

Will definitely use their services again!

Thank you!
