It is now ten weeks since my total knee replacement and I am delighted to say my life has been transformed by the excellent skills of Mr Carrothers and his team. It is pure joy to be able to walk normally again and without pain - something I’d always taken for granted before the arthritis took hold. Last year Mr Carrothers performed a total hip replacement on my left hip, using the robotic arm assisted technology and this proved to be a great success. However, I was still struggling to walk due to my severely arthritic right knee, so I had no hesitation in asking Mr Carrothers to carry out the TKR, again using the Stryker robotic arm. At the consultation, he was very patient and understanding, instantly putting me at my ease. He allowed time to answer all my questions, explaining in detail what was involved. He then visited me on the day of my operation, explaining why he had decided that the Stryker knee was not the appropriate choice for me, so had sourced a different one instead. He came to see me several times after the operation, to check on my progress and again answer all my questions. He obviously put a lot of thought into my individual requirements, which serves to illustrate the excellent personal attention he gives and for which I will be eternally grateful!
