I met Mr Alazzawi after my consultant was called away. I was anxious at first, however in July 2020, I met Mr Alazzawi at St Georges Hospital, London. During my appointment he explained what would happen during the surgery (Total Knee Replacement) to my right knee and the realistic expectations afterwards. Throughout, he was professional and reassuring. In August 2020, I arrived at the Elective Orthopaedic Centre, Epsom and met with Mr Alazzawi, who answered all my questions and reassured me. Due to Covid restrictions, I could not meet with Mr Alazzawi, however I had a telephone consultation, during which he ensured I had his e-mail address and his secretary’s telephone number in case I had any concerns. In March 2021, I met with Mr Alazzawi at St Georges Hospital, who after studying the post op x-ray was happy with everything and the progress I was making. He then raised concerns regarding the left knee and after studying an Xray, believed it would be in my best interest to have the same procedure to my left knee. In June 2021 I underwent a Total Knee Replacement to my left knee and again Mr Alazzawi was reassuring and compassionate. However, after being released and the dressing was removed, there was some discharge to the wound, I contacted Mr Alazzawi directly who reassured my it was nothing to be concerned about but said I could visit him that same day if I was concerned and he would look at it, always willing to go that extra mile. I met with Mt Alazzawi face to face in July 2020, who was pleased with the wound and the progress so far, however said that due to previous injuries to the knee, I would have to work extra hard on regaining the movement and discussed some exercise that would help. To date I feel that both operations have been a success and have transformed my life, allowing me to walk with my family and regain my life. I would like to express my thanks to Mr Alazzawi.
