Mr Spiegelberg took care of my son when he had an injury to his knee. Through surgery and after care he is now back up and fighting fit.
We are both very happy with all the help and support he has given us.

Had my total knee replacement almost a year ago at St Albans hospital with Ben Spiegelberg. The operation was a complete success and the recovery a lot quicker than I had expected. I returned to work after 10 weeks and have had no problem with my new knee. It has given me a new lease on life.
Mr Spiegelberg is a very kind, attentive surgeon, who spends time answering questions in language which is easy to understand. He came to recovery to assure me the operation went well and the following morning he visited to answer any questions and to inform me of what to expect in the following weeks.
My stay on the ward was a pleasant experience, with all the nurses, physios, kitchen staff and cleaners all working together to aid my recovery.

I write on behalf of my 84 year old mother who has had two operations this year, conducted by Mr Spiegelberg.
In February my mother had a total hip replacement and in September, a full knee replacement (same leg) at St Albans Hospital.
Mr Spiegelberg was very patient, taking the time to explain the cause, the process for the replacements and procedure for both operations. Upon admission, a bed-side visit was made on both occasions to ensure my mother was at ease and I cannot fault the support team who assist and the nursing staff on the ward, for the care during the operations and post op. Mr Spiegelberg took the time to ensure that he met with my mother, for her post op appointments, the last being today.
I cannot express enough, how much the professional approach of Mr Spiegelberg was appreciated. It has given my mother a new lease of life!
