Mr Parkar has been fantastic throughout the process of my ACL Reconstruction I can’t thank him enough. Before surgery and after he was always there to listen to my concerns or explain any information to me in order to make me feel a lot more confident about my injury. The operation he done on me has been amazing I have had no issues so far and am slowly building back up to full strength. Mr Parkar has always been very thorough when doing checks on my knee during every appointment and has gone through every part of the process explaining what it’s for. Overall Mr Parkar has been amazing to me for everything he has done and I am so happy with the work he has done on my knee.

From my first consultation with Mr Parkar through to my operation and then my follow up appointment I was informed of everything that would happen and made to feel at complete ease. I did check previous reviews before I went for my surgery and was happy with what I read. I would recommend Mr Parkar to anyone who is thinking of having surgery. This surgery was a total knee replacement done at Hartswood hospital on 29th November 2021 through the NHS and I think myself very lucky to have had such wonderful care from all concerned. Today I have had my follow up appointment with Mr Parkar and again I was happy with the outcome. I cannot praise everyone enough especially Mr Parkar. Thank you.

I have no negative comments at all. The doctor was very open, explaining the situation, friendly and what you would wish from a doctor. My anasthaesist was wonderful. Do not remember his name. Very friendly, communicative, and wise. Glad that I listened to him when he advised me to go for an epidural despite having had a very bad experience before. Thank you for being such good doctors.

I had an mpfl reconstruction with tibial tubercle osteotomy to treat a recurrent patella instability. My surgeon was Mr Asif Parkar. I honestly can't fault this surgeons care before, during and after my operation. Mr Asif Parkar did not rush me in making my decision and explained all the side effects calmly and professionally. Even on the day of my operation, he explained everything again. My whole care was spot on .

I was treated by Mr Asif Parkar for a knee injury, on my initial assessment Mr Parker was thorough, informative, honest and professional. For the resulting operation and after care, even though I was NHS patient, I was treated with the same care and consideration as a private patient. I would absolutely recommend Mr Parkar. Not sure I can make any suggestions on improving the service
