He is an extremely gifted and nationally recognised knee surgeon performing modern keyhole surgery techniques for patients from across the country with outstanding results. He always has time for his patients and goes above and beyond to ensure they have the best possible results. His national data for knee replacement surgery is amongst the top surgeons in the country. He has treated my own immediate family members which is the highest form of praise I could possibly give.
