Dr A Parker is a fantastic doctor with a great bedside manner. I had knee surgery to remove loose cartilage. He explained the procedure in great detail and gave me confidence about the process. A great doctor whom I would highly recommend.

Full knee replacement. Mr Parkar is a very professional and concise consultant/surgeon. Prior to operation he went through the process of what he was going to replace within my knee which I felt very comfortable with. I was waking on my new knee straight after the operation, which amazed me, and was home within 24 hours. Mr Parkar was very kind and understanding and I would not hesitate to recommend him. Hoping to have second knee replacement towards the end of this year, surgery with Mr. Parkar again.

Dr Parker came across friendly yet professional, he was very clear and concise with his explanation of the the procedure he was going to perform. He made me feel very confident being left in his hands and 2 months after my operation I am already feeling the benefits. Overall I am extremely happy and glad I made the right decision to have it done. I couldn't really ask for more.
