Explanation

Mr Maruthainar gave me a thorough examination today and advised me to get an ankle support when I attended my appointment. It seems very comfortable and helpful. This follows a left knee replacement operation that he did from which I recovered really quickly! In my opinion he is a brilliant surgeon and I highly recommend him. He's also very charming, lovely and easy to talk to.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. I am grateful for your generous comments. Of course the success of knee surgery stems also from your engagement and efforts as a patient.

Nimalan is an excellent hip and knee surgeon. He sees patients promptly. His consultations are not rushed and his reports are detailed. My patients have been very satisfied with his care before, during and after surgery. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
