Mr Carrothers performed a full robotic replacement on my right hip. from start to finish he informed me about my options and was very respectful. Mr Carrothers and his secretary have been brilliant all the way through the process and would like to say a massive thank you as I am now pain free.

I had my first consultation with Mr Carrothers towards the end of 2022. My MRI showed Osteoarthritis damage to both knees. Mr Carrothers suggested that due to the significant impact on my daily life, I should consider a Mako Robotic Uni-compartmental knee operation on both knees. I am a nervous person, I felt Mr Carrothers calm, measured, pragmatic approach and explanation of the damaged condition of my knees made me feel safe and confident to procede with the operation. I had my Mako partial knee operation at the end of January 2023. The care I received from Mr Carrothers, Dr Mahroof ( anaesthetist) and his team was exceptional - I am very grateful for the wonderful job they did of relaxing me pre -operation ! The operation has been a great success,the first couple of weeks were challenging but I am now back to my normal routine and my knee strength continues to improve. I will be putting myself in the safe hands of Mr Carrothers and his team for the Mako partial knee operation on my left knee in the next few months.

Mr Carrothers is polite, professional, amiable and an expert in his field. I had a Mako total hip replacement in January and was back to normal by the end of March. Mr Carrothers and his team were efficient and caring during my stay at the Spire and I would highly recommend them and the Spire.
