Mr Bodhu has fitted two complete knee replacements for me over a 15 month period and everything has been superb. His manner is wonderful and his expertise goes without saying as I am now looking forward to a completely better future. I’m going to be able to walk more which will keep my weight down and get back to doing a lot of things I used to do which will hopefully change my life in many ways.

I was always made aware of the risks and possible outcomes. My operation went smoothly and I was able to get out of bed within an hour of getting onto the ward. The Colchester Hospital hub is brilliant with caring staff and I was able to go home after only. One night. My recovery went well and I followed the excercise routine and was driving after 4 weeks.. I will say that Ithe main thing is to keep up the excercise to get the muscles back to normal.
