I was really pleased that Mr Maxwell was able to see me, send me for a scan and operate on my knee in under 2 weeks with a most positive outcome. I would also like to commend the Oaklands Hospital in Salford for their kind and professional attention through the whole experience.
I can’t recommend Mr Maxwell highly enough. From the very beginning, he was clear, precise, and extremely knowledgeable in explaining my condition and the steps needed to resolve it. He took the time to ensure I fully understood what was going on with my knee and outlined a straightforward plan to rectify the problem. His professionalism and attention to detail gave me complete confidence throughout the process. Thanks to his expertise, my knee has improved significantly, and I’m incredibly grateful for the care and results he delivered. A truly excellent surgeon.
I have been under Mr Maxwell for my Chronic planter fasciitis on both feet. He is an excellent clinician.
