Outstanding advice and pastoral care from Jonathan. His approach is very much non-invasive which makes a huge difference when considering treatment options. Would not hesitate to recommend him.

Mr Jonathan Bird was extremely professional and informative when it came to my ACL surgery and reassured me about any concerns I had.

I have been a patient of Mr Bird for some 8 years managing progressive osteoarthritis in both knees. Over that time, although there were periods when the pain wasn't too bad, the general trend was downwards and so I had a Total Knee Replacement (TKR) on my right knee in December 2022. I took the pre-hab and re-hab seriously and worked with a PT to get my mobility back after the operation. I'm delighted with the outcome and now can get back to doing most things in life that I enjoy. To be honest. most of the time I don't even remember having a replacement knee joint!

Mr Bird was very polite and answered any questions I had. i was asked to book xrays and make an appointment with his secretary for a follow-up.
