Having been referred from my GP, I was accessed by Mr Heaton. He confirmed that both of my knees should have the replacements carried out. The left-hand knee was replaced in October 2017.The right-hand knee was replaced in October 2018. The recovery from the first surgery was as predicted by the physio department. Prior to the surgery on the right-hand knee I made preparation for the operation by the means of going to the gym for a three months period. The main focus was on the leg strength exercises. The dividend from this was that I spent only two days in hospital and was only aided with the crutches for a total of five days. I attended the physio sessions on two occasions. On the first session the knee was deflecting 110.Second session 125°. Mr Heaton has excellent interpersonal skills. In my view he is an excellent surgeon. The standard of care during and after surgery at the Fitzwilliam hospital was first class. Thanks for making such a successful outcome of the operation
