I can’t thank Mr Hamilton enough from my first consultation he listened to my concerns and I immediately felt reassured that my Partial Knee Replacement was the way to go and I would be in very capable hands. On the actual day of the procedure he provided detailed explanation on the procedure and again put me at ease. His outlook has encouraged me to work harder with my physical therapy to ensure I get the most out of this PKR. I have great confidence in his abilities as a surgeon.
