Mr Carrothers carried out a full knee replacement on my right knee for me in November 2012 which was very successful. As I was suffering from pain in 2023 in my left knee I consulted Andrew again. In my consultation he explained very carefully and in straightforward terms that was easy to understand the problem with the wear in my knee and gave a very clear recommendation that a full replacement would be the best option. The operation was done on 9 January 2024 and I have just returned for my 6 week review which showed that the operation was totally successful. The operation was assisted by the Mako Robotic Arm and I believe that this has resulted in a faster and less painful post-operation recovery. I would recommend Mr Carrothers 100% as an excellent surgeon for knee or hip replacement. In addition to his obvious expertise, he is very friendly and appoachable and has an excellent bedside manner.

I’ve just had my 12 month review and been discharged by Mr Carrothers. I was in a lot of pain and quite concerned about having my hip replaced, but Mr Carrothers put my mind at ease from the very first consultation and throughout my continued care. I felt very confident in his explanation about the procedure and recovery times. He is a kind and lovely man who is passionate about his work and I would highly recommend him and his team.

I had my 12mths review with Mr Andrew Carrothers on Friday 2nd Feb and was discharged by this excellent surgeon. Mr Carrothers and team, including Dr Razeen Mahroof, were never phased by my complex medical history including Parkinson and Mild Von Wilebrand disease. My two total knee replacement operations were both managed with precision and great care including the post op support and guidance. I am grateful for the excellent care of this skilful and passionate surgeon and would like to commend him once again for his excellent care. I am very happy to recommend Mr Carrothers and his team and wish them continued success in helping others gain greater mobility.

After 6 weeks I already feel completely confident of my new right hip. From the outset it seems to have settled in and to be recovering more quickly and with less wound soreness and movement constraint than the left hip done 6 years ago - even though i am that much older. It seems as though the fitting has been more precise and with less disturbance to surrounding muscle. Maybe from Mr Carrothers description this is in part due to the robotics - or he has simply become even better at the operation! I would also like to say how engaging, attentive and thoughtful he was to me. This makes quite difference I think and I feel sure others do too.
