I have been under the care of Dr Howells for the best part of 4 years and undergone 3 surgeries. When I met Dr Howells, I was a broken man in every aspect of the word, unable to walk more than 100 meters without being in sever pain, play sports and simply get on with life. Today, I am able to walk "without pain" enjoy life and do sports and activities I have not been able to enjoy for many years. Surgeons from previous employment told me that my life was about pain management (at the age of 29) and I would have to adapt my life accordingly, the job I was doing at the time was no longer suitable. Should I have met Dr Howells then, I would still be doing that job and be a Senior NCO in the Armed Forces. Dr Howells has given me a second chance to enjoy a life with minimal pain and let me live in a way that I want to live, not have to submit to pain management and live accordingly. Dr Howells and his team were honest with me from first consultation, the results have been better than we can have expected and now I am in a much better and happier place than I have been for the last 12 years. I do not have enough words to thank Dr Howells and his team for what they have done for me, really giving me a second chance. Dr Howells, to you and your team thank you for what you have done, giving me the ability to live my life without pain, giving me hope, choice and endless opportunities. THANK YOU

I was initially seen by Mr Howells in 2016 and had a total left knee replacement in 2017. I have now had a total right knee replacement as of 6 May 2021. Both operations have been a complete success and I commend Mr Howells for his excellent advice, understanding and operative skills. Top man!
