Dr Howells did an amazing job with my knee. From the initial consultation, the knee operation (ACL reconstruction using hamstring graft) all the way through post surgery consultation. Big shout out to his secretary Ruth, who was always there on the other end of the phone to assist with any pre and post surgery queries.
Many thanks both

Dr Nick Howells is a fantastic Dr / Surgeon, from the initial appointment, to my follow up appointments, he listens to your concerns, explains exactly what is going to happen, and totally puts you at ease, a big thank you for my left knee replacement, it has made such a difference to my quality of life, I cannot thank you enough.
I was referred to Mr Howells as a consequence of a long standing knee condition. His obvious expertise, together with his clear and concise communication style inspired confidence in both his diagnosis as well as the recommended solution. A total knee replacement was proposed. Whilst the prospect of major surgery was not initially appealing, the benefits were made obvious and I was happy to put my trust in Mr Howells to carry out the procedure. This trust was not misplaced. My surgery and subsequent recovery have gone well. Even after a relatively short time I am beginning to appreciate the benefits of the new knee.
In summary, I highly recommend Mr Howells (and his team).
Was brilliant in his knowledge and capacity to answer numerous questions regarding a complex condition. Provided quality advice with a realistic timescale to achieve the desired outcome.
Mr Nick Howells has been great from start to finish.
I had a knee replacement.
In our first consultation Nick explained what was going to happen in the procedure, and what I could expect from the result of the operation.
The operation was very successful and all Nick has predicted was correct.
From start to finish the team that looked after me was great, I would recommend Nick and his team to any one thinking of having a Knee operation.
