I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Carrothers. I was very nervous never having had an operation before but Mr Carrothers instilled much confidence in me because he was so approachable. I felt I could trust myself into his care, which for me, is a big step of faith. I have just had my follow up appointment and Mr Carrothers listened carefully to my questions and answered them carefully and honestly and I feel reassured. I can confidently recommend Mr Carrothers not only for his skill and competence as a surgeon, but as a a really caring doctor. Thank you Mr Carrothers for what you have done for me.

I'm so very pleased l chose Mr Carrothers, he's been so kind and caring towards me with the upmost professional approach, this surgeon is worth his weight in gold. I have been unfortunate to have surgery twice this year, my first was keyhole to repair my cartlidge and tidy some arthritis, unfortunately this wasn't successful which lead to me having a total knee replacement, with robotic surgery, in late December. I'm doing well and each day is a day closer to getting my mobility back, as Mr Carrothers said on my consultation, let's get you in control of your life not your knee controlling your life, and that's exactly what's happening. I'm not very good at coping with having things done to myself, but Mr Carrothers and his surgery team are a great bunch of people who really make a positive difference to how you feel and cope with having surgery, l would highly recommend this team of professionals. Eternily grateful

I write less than 48 hours after my full left hip replacement. I would like to convey my gratitude to Dr Andrew Carrothers for pulling off this operation during the midst of a health crisis. Secondly, I wish to record my immense gratitude to Dr Carrothers for his care, wise words, skill and dedication to fixing my troublesome hip. Last but not least, very many thanks to the Carrothers Orthopaedic team and Spire Lea Hospital, Cambridge. Updates to follow as I progress through the rehab journey.

Mr Carrothers managed my wife's hip replacement a year ago, so I knew that he was an exceptionally skilled and sympathetic surgeon. His management of my hip amplified my trust in him as a surgeon. He listened carefully, responded to my questions with clear and understandable answers, and filled me with confidence both before the surgery and afterwards during my recovery. I would recommend him unequivocably and without hesitation to anyone considering a hip replacement.
