I had a TNR with Mr Rajaratnam at the Cleveland Clinic, London. Having previously had a bad experience with my other knee and a poor outcome with another Surgeon at another hospital, I was very apprehensive about doing it again. Sam and his team, especially Barry Phillips - Anaesthetist and Christine Howis, Nursing, made sure my whole experience was as comfortable as possible, well managed and with supportive aftercare with physios etc, has given me a much better experience and a better outcome and I’m doing so much better this time. The whole package I felt, has put me on the right track for a successful functioning new knee.

I had knee replacement surgery carried out by Sam Rajaratnam at the Cleveland Clinic. The whole process was incredibly professional. At the initial consultation the procedure was explained to me in great detail and I felt very comfortable going into the operation. Sam is supported by a wonderful team of professionals with a particular mention to Barry his anaesthetist. Of course the most important thing is the outcome which was a great success…….and pain free!!! I felt privileged to be looked after by Sam and his team. Lastly a thank you to everyone at the Cleveland Clinic who made my stay so comfortable. Thanks to all. .

I self funded in order to be treated by Sam, as I had heard very good things about him and had experienced problems with my first knee replacement. It was money well spent in every respect. He and his anaesthetist, Barry, inspire total confidence, and at 6 weeks post operative I am very happy indeed with the result. I received excellent care throughout my stay at the Horder centre and would wholeheartedly recommend Sam.

I had a knee replacement January 5th. I received the best care possible. My surgeon sorted out my pain relief perfectly and I am very grateful and pleased with the result. I have good movement and am looking forward to getting back to normal. He also recommended a physiotherapist with whom I am working. His anaesthetist was also very good and helpful. I would recommend himself and his team.
