From my first consultation with Mr Lakdawala to my formal discharge I couldn't be happier. After my original consultant couldn't determine my actual injury Mr Lakdawala did his checks and then gave guidance as to next steps. I chose surgery and it has been a great success. I'm 7 weeks post op but have been walking with no limp for a number of weeks and making great progress. I would highly recommend his services.

Mr Lakdawala from the first meet showed care and understanding, he always went through everything in detail making sure we were both singing off the same sheet, I always felt he was taking in what I needed to tell him and made the experience as manageable as possible.

I had a total knee replacement 6 weeks ago by Mr Lakdawala. The operation has been a complete success and I was up and about the next day. I was walking independently pretty much straight away and by week 4 I was back to 10,000 steps per day. Mr Lakdawala is an amazing surgeon and the expert to go to with knee problems as he purely specialises in knees as opposed to others who try to cover many areas of orthopaedics. As a person, he is an absolute delight. I never feel rushed at appointments and he listens to what you are telling him . I do not feel foolish with my questions and I am completely at ease in his presence. Ayaz Lakdawala is a kind man with a fantastic sense of humour, which in my opinion as a retired nurse Tutor, is vital when working for the NHS. Thank You. You are the Bees' Knees. Kind Regards Debra Chambers (DC)

Dr Lakdawala, explained everything in layman’s terms so I understood the whole process from pre to post op. He listen to my requests and answered any questions I had. Post op, he involved other healthcare professionals so I got the best possible care when I needed it.
