Mr Laurence Dodd

Written by a NHS patient at The Chichester Nuffield Hospital

I was invited by the Nuffield Hospital Chichester to attend a presentation given by Laurence Dodd on the intricacies of knees and the various operations which were available to remedy problems. His positive attitude inspired me to ultimately have both knees replaced instead of living in constant pain. Having just been signed off following the second of two successful operations [left and right knees!] I can now say that my trust in Mr Dodd from that initial presentation throughout all consultations and procedures was not misplaced. I could not have wished for a more thorough and approachable Medic.

Mr Dodd performed a total knee replacement for me in February 2021,in April I started to have problems with this knee,and consulted Mr.Dodd. As I have come to expect from him he listened and fully understood all my concerns. After having scans MRI and ultra sound which really did not show anything of much significance, he still decided to perform arthroscopy.I will always be grateful that my specialist is Mr Dodd , who always listens to the patient above technology. I am now fully recovered and happy and smiling once again. Thank you Laurie.

Mr Dodd is a great example for his profession. The care I received was excellent, he explained the whole procedure to me in depth and put me at ease throughout the pre op through to after the operation and follow up appointment . I had separate partial knee replacements , one in 2019 and one in 2020 and on both occasions received the same exceptional care from mr Dodd and all his team at St. Richards hospital .

After years of knee pain, xrays, physiotherapy and injections, I was put on the NHS waiting list. I couldn’t walk without a walking stick. I would ring the doctor, all she said was keep taking the pain tablets. I felt Ill and so fed up. I decided to ring the Nuffield Hospital in Chichester, my choice of surgeon was Mr Laurence Dodd. He told me the diagnosis was a total knee replacement. He was so understanding. I had the operation and the first month it was extremely painful but as the weeks went by it improved. Now I am delighted that I had the surgery and would recommend Mr Laurence Dodd to anyone who needs a knee replacement. He is such a caring surgeon and gentleman and I am walking without a stick!

Mr Dodd is a consummate professional, taking the patient through a seamless journey from the first meeting in clinic, through surgery and on to post-operative care. Reassuring, kind and immensely knowledgable of his craft, I have no hesitation in recommending him. You will not be in safer hands. I have my life back, pain free and mobile, to enjoy the great outdoors. Three cheers for Mr Dodd ......
