I attending an appt with my 77 year old partner who had been in severe pain for a couple of weeks - we were seen for imaging very quickly and a follow up consultation within a week. Everything was done efficiently and kindly- at the consultation, we were offered an onsite steroid jab, which has worked miracles. There is a long road to fitness via physio ahead but I cannot recommend this practice more highly

I came to see Mr Jennings as I had had my previous hip replacement on The NHS by him and was having problems with the other hip and getting nowhere with the NHS . I was seen promptly and felt at last someone was listening to me . He organised an MRI which diagnosed the problem . He gave me time to talk , showed compassion and would thoroughly recommend

I have never worked with anybody so responsive and so professional giving me the best advice I could to get back into sports due to my hamstring injury. Simon is an amazing specialist and he’s assistant Angela did work that didn’t even feel like work. They did really care.. I could not recommend a better team to help you with an injury that is not easy to fix at all. I want to thank you so much. I would definitely keep all my friends that aim to sports inform who to go to. Thank you again so much. I have not enough words to thank you how I feel.. Tamara K. Studio 68 London CEO

After a fall abroad I had surgery to mend a broken hip. Months later, the knee that I had twisted in the fall, refused to bend despite periods of rest, physio and even a steroid injection. Following an MRI to see whether there was any structural cause of the extreme stiffness, Mr Jennings recommended a manipulation of the knee under anaesthetic to release some of the stiffness, and to inject it with local anaesthetic and steroid to control pain and enhance recovery. As forewarned, the MUA and injection was immediately followed by intensive physiotherapy. The very quick procedure was successful, and I have regained much of the mobility I had lost since the accident, massively improving my quality of life. Mr Jennings is easy to talk to and has a very confident and reassuring manner. He provided clear explanations of the problem and his plan to treat it. Mr Jennings clearly has the knowledge and experience to identify less common problems. Thank you so much.

Brilliant surgeon who is a pleasure to deal with. Always explains things well and thoroughly explored with me the alternatives to surgery before we decided that I needed to have a partial knee replacement. The surgery went extremely well and my recovery has exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend him.

Mr. Simon Jennings took time to diagnose and explain everything very clearly. I was very reassured and happy with the outcome.
