I had a Mako total hip replacement to restore me to my usual high levels of physical activity. The operation was performed at the end of April and I am now seven weeks into recovery, which is going as well as I could have hoped. I'm now driving again and can now walk up to four miles without crutches, with only slight subsequent stiffness and soreness, which I'm advised will continue to diminish. Mr Carrothers has been thoroughly professional and supportive throughout the whole process – from the initial consultations, to the pre-operation tests and preparations, in the operation itself, and in the recuperation process. Despite the pressures on him he also manages to give one a degree of personal attention that undoubtedly has a positive effect on the patients' confidence and motivation.

Mr. Carrothers lived up to all the recommendations & praises heaped upon him. From first consultation to last he exuded confidence and reassurance which coupled with a caring manner would explain all the good references.

I first met Mr Carrothers in September 2020. I am 39 and have been suffering with severe knee pain in both knees for the past 9 years since being diagnosed with rhematoid arthritis. I have already had both of my hips replaced previously but I was very apprehensive about having knee replacement surgery because of my age. But as soon as I had my first appointment with Mr Carrothers, he put me at ease and understood how the pain had completely taken over my life. He recommended we go ahead with a Conformis knee replacement which is a made to measure knee. Despite being in the midst of the covid pandemic, I was able to get both my left knee and then my right knee replaced within 6 months. Mr Carrothers was so calm, reassuring and professional throughout the whole process. It is now 6 weeks since my right knee replacement and I finally feel like I am getting my life back! I still have a long way to go, but I finally went on a walk today for the first time in 9 years without being in severe pain. I can never thank Mr Carrothers enough for what he has done for me. Highly recommended!

Left knee uni-compartmental replacement at Spire in April 2021 after he did my right knee in Nov 2017. I was very keen to use him again as I am a golfer and was not able to play without pain. Procedure, consultant and hospital were very efficient and I was discharged from hospital the day after the operation and back on the golf course 5 weeks later! I can now walk comfortably up to 16000 steps a day after only 10 weeks (including 18 holes) and my golf is getting better! Andrew Carrothers is a highly skilled professional and a genuinely nice and caring person too. After 2 very successful partial knee replacements I can highly recommend him.
