Reference for MrJignesh Patel (04/04/2013)

Having recently instructed Jignesh ( Mr. Patel or Jigeshpatel) to assess my elderly and frail father for a course of physiotherapy, following a prolonged period of immobility due to dual femur fractures and an ulcer on his heel, I was very impressed with his professionalism, his level of service and patient care.

Jignesh has a very friendly and caring approach to his work. He was particularly patient with my father who hadn’t walked for a long period of time, and he quickly established a great rapport with my father, giving him confidence and trust with which to continue and persevere with the physiotherapy, from which my father has undoubtedly benefited. Jignesh has managed to get him to walk again, with the assistance of a frame, which exceeded our expectations due to his frailty and long term immobility. Without Jignesh’s commitment, motivation and encouragement, my father would not have made the progress we are witnessing today. Jignesh, has also been very helpful to the family, providing feedback and support with other service providers when needed and we are extremely grateful for his input and continued assistance.

I generally found Jignesh to be sincere, caring and a good communicator, providing clear explanations and managing patient expectations pragmatically and I would have no hesitation recommending him to anyone.
