Dr Akrawi was asked to give his opinion on my knee by another surgeon. During this discussion, Dr Akrawi assumed responsibility for an investigative arthroscopy on my knee and the subsequent after care. I had struggled with reduced knee movement, pain and restricted flexibility which resulted in leg muscle wastage for 3 years. On the day of surgery, Dr Akrawi explained the procedure. On waking from the op, somewhat later than expected, I was surprised to find myself in little discomfort or pain. When Dr Akrawi visited later that day, he explained that he had found more problems at the back of my knee and hence why the operation was more involved and had lasted longer than anticipated. I was weight bearing the following day, walking reasonably comfortably and driving the following week. Now, two weeks later, I am walking a lot better, have increased flexibility, little discomfort and I am starting physio this week. Thank you Hawar
