Dr Mughal's attention to detail is on point. Very happy with diagnosis and Ongoing care
Dr Mughal gave me the confidence I needed to get back to running and training again. I have seen him twice now, and both times gave me care and understanding. He is attentive and gives a clear diagnosis. The rehab plan is thorough and I feel in safe hands. I would always come back with any type of injury I am so thankful I found Dr Mughal!
Dr Mughal is a true master of his craft! He kindly and clearly walked me through my MRI scans with a level of detail that was comprehendable for someone non-medical (myself). The physical assessment and treatment plan gave me a renewed confidenced in getting my back issue resolved - thank you Doctor :) And a thank you to Vlad Martis who has been an absolute superstar organising my appointment in minutes and finding my scans from different clinics.
Dr. Mughal was extremely knowledgable and understanding. A good communicator, he really helped me understand the detail of my knee problem. I appreciated his talk-through of the ultrasound scan as it was being done.
Really took the time to listen to me, was very thorough. Gave me confidence in the plan being set out for me.
Dr Mughal was extremely helpful in listening to my concerns and then investigating into my injuries without haste. I was extremely pleased with his manner and left the consultation with a sense that I'm in good hands under his care. I can highly recommend Dr Mughal having seen a number of clinicians during the past 8 months for my injury.
I would highly recommend Dr Shabaaz Mughal, an excellent Consultant Radiologist with extensive experience in musculoskeletal and body imaging. Dr Mughal combines deep clinical expertise with a thoughtful, evidence‑based approach. He is particularly skilled in advanced MRI, ultrasound and image‑guided interventional procedures, and is known for his clear communication and supportive manner with both patients and clinical teams. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to patients seeking expert radiology care.

His approach to patient care is exceptional, and the individuals I have referred to him have consistently spoken highly of his expertise and manner. His in-depth knowledge of a wide range of sports-related conditions truly makes a difference in patient outcomes.
