Reviews
Mr Lakdawala has given me brilliant care from day one, I broke my tibia plateau and I'm now slowly recovering. I have full trust in him and wouldn't want to see any other doctor about my injury.
Mr Lakdawala has been very good all the way through my treatment and hospital visits. Had my knee replacement and have been very pleased.
I could not recommend Dr Lakdawala enough, was very professional, knowledgable in his field and approachable for any questions or queries i had. Also in surgery his work is so neat and tidy. My scars are healing really well and the smaller ones you can now barely see.
He is very precise in his work and always made sure i was happy and comfortable with the plan moving forward.
Mr Lakdawala’s profile speaks for itself; he is a highly skilled orthopaedic surgeon with a specialist interest in knee and sports surgery. From the first consultation, I had total confidence in his assessment and my options were extensively covered. I had a torn meniscus of the right knee and opted to have an arthroscopy and chondroplasty. I was walking, aided by crutches, four hours after the procedure and without these in 48 hours. I had a follow up two weeks later to have the stitches removed and was delighted when the nurse commented on my freedom of movement. More importantly, the pain that has plagued me has gone.
I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Lakdawala, he is engaged, very personable and a leader in his specialist field.
I had a knee replacement in March 2021 with this doctor, epidural, I am very happy with the result
