After suffering with my knee for nearly 4 years, with no reasonable explanations, I was referred to Dr Carrothers, who was professional, approachable and able to find my problem within weeks of my first consultation. He has proved to be an amazing surgeon, and my knee is feeling good after years of pain. He has informed me in years to come I may need further surgery but there is no question who I would like to look after me further if I require it. Thank you

Mr Carrothers inspired confidence and was very clear in his explanation of my surgery and the outcome. The surgery was performed and I did not experience any pain post operatively, Mr Carrothers gave me precise instructions regarding the do's and don't' following surgery, recovery was speedy and I was walking the next day and climbing stairs, in two weeks I was walking two miles daily and driving. At my follow up appointment he assured me that I could resume all normal activities, cycling and running and after 3 months I could ride my horse. I am riding again, my hip is strong, I am totally pain free and I am hoping to compete within the coming months. It is difficult to express my gratitude to Mr Carrothers, I have my life back again and I am exceedingly grateful.

Mr Carrothers was clear and concise in diagnosing my problem and arrangements ere made for a procedure quickly. He has a very pleasant and friendly manner and on better acquaintance a ready sense of humour. As an indication of his dedication to his career he visited me on the ward at 10.20pm after a long day on the theatre. On returning for consultations I have always formed the impression that he is pleased to see me and greets me with a welcoming smile.

Mr Carrothers is easy to talk to he explained in terms that I understood the surgery involved. I am very pleased with the results of my knee operation. Painless walking a great result. After care and follow up also excellent.
