Prof Bhatti is a highly skilled, experienced and well respected specialist Musculoskeletal Radiologist, with whom I've worked closely with for the last 15 years. He has been not only my 'go to' scan interpreter and reporter, but also my 'go to' interventional radiologist for image guided injections. He has a great bedside manner, which puts patients quickly at ease for their injections. He works across a range of elite sporting professional clubs and organisations. It is my pleasure to recommend him.
