Reviews
Orthopaedics and EDS are not good bedfellows but Mr Zahn is able to tread the delicate path between the two to find the right course of action. Not only prepared to listen to the patient but also willing to really talk to find out what is going on.
Excellent Surgeon, who listens and provides great advice and after care. Highly recommend him
This is he second total hip replacement under Mr Zahn. An excellent surgeon who cares deeply about his patients and listens to all your concerns. Then his diagnosis seeks to reassure you that everything is OK before and after the operation.
Thoroughly recommend this surgeon to anyone needing a total hip replacement.
Failed ACL knee surgery, and didnt see me in any follow up appointments. Caused more damage than before surgery. Got second operation appointment through to 'just do it again'. Went and spoke to another specialist and more surgery needed to fix the original surgery by Zahn then a second ACL operation done properly.
It was a pleasure to meet Mr Zahn and I know when the time comes for me to have my op. I'm in capable hands.
