Great experience with Mr Van Niekerk, i've made great progress since surgery and pleased with the procedure. Sometimes i've felt i've had to ask for information i'd expect to be given more readily

I've now been under Mr Van Niekerk for around 5 years with various injuries and issues. Throughout my time i can honestly say i have never had any concerns about any part of my care. Mr Van Niekerk always gave me all my options and help me make the best decisions to suit myself and i can thank him enough for that. I will also mention my post op care under Steve wood and also some of the other Physio's was exceptional!

Fantastic in recognising and diagnosing the issue and first class if any surgical procedure is required. Easy to get on with and discuss symptoms and outcomes. Would not want to use any other consultant.

Mr van Niekerk is a very polite professional doctor who put me at ease from the moment I stepped into his office. He listened to everything I’d been through prior and quickly diagnosed my issue and made a quick prompt decision. If it wasn’t for Mr van Niekerk I wouldn’t be where I am today walking without pain and discomfort.
