David is quite simply brilliant. From the diagnosis to the treat options, to the procedure and onward to aftercare I cannot speak highly enough of David and his team. David said the procedure would be life changing and indeed it has been. Thank you.

After the X-rays and MRI on my knees Mr Houlihan-Burne gave a clear explanation of his diagnosis and recommended bi-lateral knee replacement. The operation went well and his response to a minor post operative issue was extremely rapid (an email reply within 10 minutes and a consultation within 2 hours). I am very happy with the treatment I received.

Explanation

Before meeting Dr H-B , I wasn’t even aware that the procedure I had ( Knee Osteotomy) was even an option. As an active & sports playing 54 yo I was worried that after having an arthroscopy 4 years earlier, the only option was a total knee replacement. After the initial consultation & from the information provided by Dr H-B, I knew straight away that this procedure was perfect for me , and 18 months later & completely pain free, I wasn’t wrong. I continue to play sports at a high intensity level & confidence that I hadn’t been able to before the procedure. For me anyway… 100% success & very grateful for the advice and skills of Dr Houlihan - Burne.

He has always provided me with a full and explanatory description of what was wrong with my knee and what needed to be done and how it would be done. He is extremely patient friendly and easily comes across as being excellent at what he does and made me feel that I was the only one that he was concerned with.
