I needed a knee replacement Mr Lakdawala talked me through the whole thing so when I actually had the operation I was prepared. He saw me before, during and after the operation, so I knew how everything went. I can’t recommend Mr Lakdawala enough.

I had a complete knee and kneecap replacement at The George Elliot Hospital and my surgeon was Mr Lakdawala. My operation is a complete success I have now reached eight weeks and can only say that I am entirely delighted with my progress and have now finished physio with excellent flexibility in my knee joint. an essential part of progress. The care I received in hospital was excellent I cannot speak highly enough. I live in Wales and was lucky enough to be able to take up the offer of a bed in Nuneaton after being on the waiting list for a couple of years or more. Thank you very much.

Initially, at our pre-op meeting, I found Mr Lakdawala a little stern and did not feel totally at ease in his presence. I felt a little like I was a nuisance and just another patient on the NHS conveyor belt. One amongst many. However, once he met me in the ward (day of the procedure), subsequently post op and later in the out patients clinic for the follow up, I found him more approachable, he seemed more relaxed and warmer and at ease. That helped to put me at ease throughout the entire experience. I felt as if I had finally met the real persona behind Mr Lakdawala, not the Consultant. My new knee is healing well and I wish to thank Mr Lakdawala for his expertise and commitment to his work.
