Christopher Coombs

Contrary to other reviewers, I had a satisfactory experience at my first consultation with Prof. Coombs. The receptions staff were pleasant and helpful and answered any questions. The consultation with Prof. Coombs was conducted in a friendly, professional manner, and all my questions were answered without hesitation. Prof. Coombs took time to show me my X-rays on a big screen and took me through the diagnosis with care and attention. He offered a range of possible solutions. He suggested, and I agreed, to undertake the least invasive as a possible satisfactory outcome

Attended a rushed 5 min consult regarding torn ligaments in my wrist. Coombs did not even read the MRI report, refused to answer any questions and spent more time talking to his mate on his mobile. I was rushed to the front desk to pay $170.00. Arrogant beyond belief and a proper flog. Im surprised he lets us mere morals walk within 100 metres of him.

Attended a rushed 5 min consult re a scar reduction issue. Coombs proposed a very unsatisfactory solution which he would have realised if he examined the scar (which he did not). Was rushed to front desk to pay $170.00. Arrogant beyond belief. Will not be proceeding with him.

Professor Coombs was engaged to remove a ganglion cyst from my son's wrist. The overall experience was negative and my son has had limited movement and considerable pain since the procedure 4 years back. Professor Coombs seemed disinterested during follow up visits. We've subsequently had to undergo repeat surgery with rehab to remove the ganglion again and repair the damaged ligament. This surgery has been undertaken by a different surgeon and the results seem considerably more promising at this time.

Had Dupuytren's Contracture and had basically lost 50% usage of my finger on my right hand. One week after surgery had back almost 100% usage on my hand. Prof Coombs might not say much during the appointments or post op but in my case he did good work! Very happy with the result.
