I was very worried prior to my appointment, however I found Mr Parkar very professional, he examined me properly and most of all listened to me. He came up with a treatment plan which I felt very satisfied with. I felt so relieved after the appointment and wished I had not been so worried prior thereto.

I was referred to mr Parker at theSpires hospital by the NHS after years of pain in my knees. Mr Parker took great care, utilising x rays etc, to determine the best possible solution was to have a total knee replacement of my right first and then the left in maybe six months if needed. I was was extremely anxious, Mr Parker appreciated this and supported me in requesting my husband to stay with me. The Spires generously provided an additional bed, the staff were most helpful and Mr Parker’s team including his anaesthetist put my mind at rest and the operation was successful. The ward staff including the doctor and nursing team with the pharmacists involvement in controlling the pain during and after returning home was exemplary.. THe result is fantastic, the spires expert physiotherapist along with Mr Parker’s post op. care are helping me to walk better than I have for a long while and I’m looking forward to being fully mobile very soon. My experience with mr Parker and his team at the Spires could not have been better, I have no hesitation in recommending them (even the fish and chips were great)
