I had A full left knee replacement by Sam three years ago. I had the Vanguard high flexion knee so that I could return to competing with my horses.
All I can say is it is the best thing I ever did and Sam and his team are absolutely amazing and I would recommend him to anybody. If it wasn’t for him I would not be riding today.
Thank you Sam

Dr Sam Rajaratnam is an excellent physician who treats knee surgery as seriously as Van Gogh cared for his art. What sets Sam apart apart is that he is constantly optimising his procedures to deliver optimal outcomes for his patients. This means his stats for completing successful operations without complications are in the best tier available. He also a top bloke to deal with and has an excellent team supporting too.

I have had a wonderful and professional experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate on recommending Sam.
I’d also like to mention how helpful, caring and efficient Polly and the rest of the team are.
Absolutely brilliant experience at the Schoen Clinic.

I have just had left TKR by Sam Rajaratnam and without hesitation booked my right knee to be done in May! I cannot thank him enough for his attentiveness professionalism and care. His team is a credit to him and the Schoen clinic is outstanding. I truly believe I could not have been in better hands. This is a big operation and can seem a bit scary but everything was explained to me in detail and nothing was too much trouble. It is early days for me now in week 4 post op but my progress and recovery has been miraculous thanks to the care I have received. I thank Mr Rajaratnam sincerely for giving me back quality of life and I do feel very privileged to have had such a charming and talented surgeon perform my procedure. I cannot speak highly enough of him. Heartfelt thanks

Sam is a really great consultant who took the time to explain in detail at the first appointment what he proposed to do. He answered my questions and was very reassuring. I did not feel rushed during my appointment and left feeling very confident I was in safe hands.
I saw him before my operation where he took the time to explain again the operation the outcome and detail my recovery time.
He has a lovely personality and manner and this helped enormously the anxiety one feels when having surgery.
Post appointments Sam again took the time to fully explain in an easy to understand way the outcome and future.
I would have no hesitation at all at highly recommending Sam Rajaratnam.
