“Your skill and attentive care got me through my knee replacement.  My operation took place last Tuesday and a week later I am mobile without pain and feeling terrific. Thank you for everything.”

“As an active sportswoman, it was shattering to learn that my anterior cruciate ligament had snapped… there was really only one option – an ACL replacement requiring a graft from my hamstring.Eight months on, after many gentle practice sessions, I have started to play friendly matches again. Now I feel very positive regarding my chances of returning to international tournaments.”

“I came out of my first consultation with Mr Gleeson having been given a brilliant explanation of my knee condition… Three months after my Oxford partial knee I have full function in the knee restored, I’m walking pain-free and looking forward to my first round of golf in 4 years!”

“Whilst playing u19 rugby for Gloucester academy I completely ruptured my right ACL with partial medial ligament and meniscal damage. Mr Close performed a full ACL reconstruction on my right knee. 10 years on, I am nearly 30 and have been playing international touch rugby for England for the last 3 years. Thanks to the quality of surgery and care I received from Mr Close and his team I have been able to continue to pursue my sports goals in life.”
