Treatments
At The Knee Clinics, we specialise in all knee pathologies. As we deal exclusively with the knee, we cover the full set of treatments from simple, to complex pathologies. We invite you to get in touch so we may begin your treatment pathway, with our primary goal being to get you back to your normal daily activities, with the least invasive methods. We ensure a full and thorough work-up is carried out, with all your options explained in great detail, giving you peace of mind, ownership and control of you health.
Clinic Appointment
Please contact us to book a consultation with our specialist. You will have a thorough history and examination of your ailment carried out in the initial appointment, with a follow-up being arranged if further investigations are required.
Our consultations are covered by all major insurers.
We are delighted to accept self pay consultations:
- Initial Consultation: £200
- Follow-up Consultation: £150
(Please note, imaging and investigations are not included in the consultantation fees, and are billed directly to the hospital.)
Imaging & Investigations
We are pleased to offer a full detailed service of investigations. You will have a diagnostic X-Ray in your consultation if required, with specialist views being taken. The results will be discussed in the same clinic appointment. If you require an MRI scan, this will be booked at the earliest opportunity, and a follow-up appointment made to discuss the results in detail.
Please note: Imaging is carried out by the hospital, and is not included, and is separate from the Clinic Consultation fees. If you are insured, this will be covered directly through the hospital.
If you are self paying, payment is made directly to the hospital for the relevant imaging, as it is not included in the initial consultation fees.
Unicompartmental (Partial) Knee Replacement
We have a particular interest and an advanced level of experience in Unicompartmental (Partial) Knee Replacements, forming the majority of our knee replacement practice. It is more technically demanding than a Total Knee Replacement, but offers a much quicker recovery, lowers risks, and a more naturally feeling knee. The majority of our partial knee replacements are carried out as a day case procedure, with patients walking out of hospital the same day. Through our rapid rehabilitation programme, the majority of our patients are back to their normal activities, independent and pain free, within a matter of weeks. The prosthesis used at The Knee Clinics has the highest data and results in the UK National Joint Registry.
Total Knee Replacement
We specialise in patients who have advanced levels of arthritis severely impacting their daily routines. Through modern techniques and evidence based prosthesis, we aim to get each patient walking comfortably the same day. We employ a dedicated enhanced recovery programme to enable our patients to return to their daily activities as quickly, and as comfortably as possible. We would aim for our patients to carry out activities such as cycling and swimming within a matter of weeks from surgery.
Ligament Reconstruction
At The Knee Clinics, we routinely manage athletes and sportsmen with acute ligament injuries. The commonest injury is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) and have adapted modern techniques to optimise surgical outcomes. Our goal is to get the player back to competitive sports at a pre-injury level through our rapid recovery rehabilitation programme and surgical techniques.
Should you have a more serious injury, we have a particular interest in complex multilligament reconstruction. We aim to carry out the entirety of your treatment in one procedure, rather than staged procedures, allowing you to excel in your recovery. The majority of our ligament reconstructions are through minimally invasive, key-hole surgery.
Meniscal Injuries
The Meniscus is the shock absorbing cushion within the knee, of which there are two in each knee. Meniscal tears are some of the commonest knee pathologies we see, and can be debilitating to even the fittest of people. We have advanced key-hole surgical techniques to address meniscal tears, and we aim to preserve and repair meniscal tears where possible. It is common to have a concomitant ligament injury, and this will also be investigated thoroughly at The Knee Clinics.
Patella Instability
Patella instability and recurrent dislocations have long been a very troublesome problem for fit and active patients. For patients who have not improved with targeted physiotherapy, we specialise in patella realignment, stabilisation and reconstruction techniques. the majority of causes is due to alterations in your natural anatomy. Through a thorough workup and investigation, we aim to correct these abnormalities to help regain a stable and worry free knee.
Cartilage Regeneration
We have a unique experience in autologous stem cell cartilage transplantation for cartilage defects. Injuries to the cartilage tend to occur in young, healthy, fit and active sportsmen. It has long been a challenge to treat cartilage defects as it does not have a blood supply to regenerate. At The Knee Clinics, we utilise modern techniques to harness stem cells and seal cartilage defects in a single surgical procedure through minimally invasive techniques. You will be thoroughly assessed on your suitability for this treatment, and following our specific rehabilitation programme, aim to get our patients back to comfortable physical activities and competitive sports
