I’ve had two full knee replacements with Alex Anderson and I couldn’t be happier, I now have an active life once again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alex, thank you so much.
Smooth appointment- just like the outcome of my operation- top class!
I have great faith in both his skill and advice. This is mm second “partial knee replacement” the first was miraclous and the second very effective and remarkably free from most pain associated with this sort of operation. I don’t know why more of this type of knee replacement procedures are not used? 3 weeks on and I’m crutch free! Thank you.
Mr Anderson gave reassurance about the procedure ( the pluses & possible minus issues). Excellent Communicator. Would have no hesitation in recommending others to use his expertise. In fact that's how I became known to him ( by word of mouth)
Fantastic service, very professional & definitely knew everything about knees
I had struggled with knee pain for 8 weeks, not being able to bend it and in bed it was very painful. I booked into see Mr Anderson for a consultation and he immediately gave me a diagnosis . I then went to Thornbury for the operation and had the procedure described to me as I viewed it on a screen . 8 weeks later I saw Mr Anderson for the final consultation and told him I was now pain free walking and cycling . I would definitely recommend Mr Anderson for his skill and compassion .
First Class Professional who reassured patient of all aspects of procedure. His manner & expertise shown through at all times
Excellent consultant very informative from day one of seeing Mr Anderson
Skill Endorsements
I have known Alex as my previous trainer and now as my colleague. He is an extremely gifted and nationally recognised knee surgeon performing modern keyhole surgery techniques for patients from across the country with outstanding results. He always has time for his patients and goes above and beyond to ensure they have the best possible results. His national data for knee replacement surgery is amongst the top surgeons in the country. He has treated my own immediate family members which is the highest form of praise I could possibly give.
