S. Black - Sutherland Chan Centre

Central, Hong Kong

 

“Taras is a very competent and intuitive healthcare professional. I have referred numerous patients to him over the past year and they have always commented to me on the effectiveness of his treatments. I have been impressed by his professional demeanor and communication skills in dealing with patients and staff. I have worked in this field for over 15 years and I feel that it is important to develop a rapport with patients and staff in a small clinic. Taras has accomplished this easily as he is friendly and genuinely cares about his patients.

I have sought Taras’ skills as well for my own musculoskeletal injuries and I am always amazed at how quickly I recover with just one or two treatments. His assessment skills are always precise and his advice is invaluable. He is flexible with his time and always willing to discuss patient case histories with me.

I highly recommend Taras as a good osteopath and an experienced and knowledgeable healthcare practitioner.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.”

“I came to Taras with pregnancy-related joint pains. I had already seen a physiotherapist and another osteopath whose treatments had not improved my condition. I could not believe how much better I felt after only a couple of sessions with Taras. His treatment method was very gentle, yet extremely effective. I’ve since recommended him to others with good results. I’ve even brought my newborn son to him, that’s how much I trust him !“
