The key elements to our reputation as knee specialists are:-
Accurate Diagnosis of all knee conditions - This begins by listening to our patients. Our knee consultants will take a detailed history of your symptoms in our modern private clinics and perform a thorough yet specific examination of your knee. An array of clinically provocative tests will aid the consultants to establish the diagnosis and to determine whether knee surgery in necessary.
Diagnostic Testing of knee pain - The knee clinic is supported by MRI diagnostic facilities, conventional x-rays and ultrasound scanning for soft tissue diagnosis, ensuring that your knee pain can be quickly diagnosed and the correct treatment for your knee identified. These investigations are done collaboratively between the knee clinician and the radiologist and are used to help pinpoint your knee problem and guide your treatment programme - whether knee surgery or a more therapeutic approach.
Treatment Excellence - Each knee consultant has years of experience evaluating and treating a broad spectrum of knee problems from knee pain management to knee surgery, including total knee replacement.
Team Approach - Knee surgeons, specialist knee physiotherapists and podiatrists interact in the implementation of your treatment programme. This will significantly reduce the potential risk of long term knee pain and disability, help enable patients to manage for themselves and therefore enhance recovery time.
