Professor Patel has been excellent on all my visits to the Spire Hospital. He did my right total knee replacement in April 2026 and on my last visit to him after 4 months he was pleased with my progress and has discharged me. He has done an excellent job and the bone on bone pain I had for about 3 to 4 years has now gone. Wonderful. Professor Patel has a very friendly, approachable manner and is happy to answer any questions I might have. I am very happy with the outcome.
