Mr Parkar was very thorough in explaining the procedure for a full knee replacement and was very patient in clearly answering my questions. I found him to be very kind and understanding regarding my concerns about this operation. Mr Parkar has shown his expert skills by now replacing two of my knees and the result is life changing for me as I can now walk without pain. Opportunities are now available to me to travel and my new mobility has enabled me to take walks for leisure and socialising etc. as well as going about my everyday tasks of shopping and housework. I am also very grateful to him for replacing my knees so well that I can now cycle with ease and enjoy this exercise and new found freedom and independence. I can highly recommend him to you if considering a knee replacement.
