Patient Experiences

"I was first referred to Ian McDermott by my physiotherapist, following a fall which damaged my knee. I was very pleased with his attentiveness, and above all, thorough nature. He made a complicated issue easy for me to understand. I have enormous confidence in his care and attention. He always has time for me and I never feel rushed."
Mrs J Gelernter, 7/09/07

"My physiotherapist referred me to Ian McDermott after having injured my left knee for the 2nd time in 3 years. From the onset he has been professional, informative and straight to the point. Both before and after the surgery his treatment has been exceptional and continues to be so with the after care. Last week I attended my first spinning class in 3 years. It feels great to be back in better condition than I've felt in a long time."
Mrs Smirti Kotecha, 24/9/07

"I chose Mr McDermott based on his expertise in the field of treating knee problems as I had long term knee issues following many years playing football. Following a successful operation and follow up physiotherapy I have been able to return to playing squash, tennis and golf in the same week without any complaints or suffering any knee pains. The whole process of treatment was professionally managed and the advice and referrals for follow up treatment at a high standard allowing me to return to a fully active lifestyle."
Mr Julian Baines, 19/2/10

"Dear Mr Strover, I am writing to thank you for looking after me before, during and after my operation. Without this operation I don't think I wold now be looking forward to competing again and would not be training pain free as I am doing at the moment. I cannot thank you enough for all the support you have given to me."
Miss K MacKintosh, 5/5/08

"Dear Mr Strover, My knees are doing well, I never think about them when walking.... I have just returned from a golf trip to Asia... I heard of 3 members of the golf society who had not had wonderful results from their knee surgery, and I continue to be thankful that I had such a good result from such a good surgeon - thank you."
Mrs R D C Hudson, 17/2/08
