Mr Kharwadkar replaced my right hip in 2017 - the operation was so successful that, when my left hip began to give me pain, l returned to his care. My left hip is now pain free and l am walking confidently (further every day!) He is gentle, meticulous, expert and gifted in his field. Anyone with hip or knee problems should consult this brilliant surgeon !

I was thoroughly impressed with the way Mr Kharwadkar undertook my surgery. I was fully informed as to the planned procedure and extremely impressed with his visit to me on two out of hours occasions very soon after.
5
Excellent throughout. From our first meeting to my walking normally he gave me confidence, honest and professional advice.He organised my operation, was there before I went into the operation so I could ask questions. Post op he visited me the same day in hospital to check. He came again the following day as I was unwell and gave me confidence. At home I knew I could contact him if necessary. In my opinion he is a very professional, motivated, passionate and very experienced surgeon who has a pleasant and friendly approach to patients and is easy to talk to . I would definitely recommend Mr Kharwadkar in every way . My hip replacement has been totally successful in that at 6 weeks I am walking normally and the scar is neat and healing perfectly .
