Testimonials by Treatment Type
Karen Ryan
“Now my knee is absolutely fine. It's completely pain-free. There's nothing that I can't do with it. I've got all my range of movement back with it. I can squat, I can, you know, everything. I can walk. I've got no issues with it at all. I've got no pain with it. I would definitely recommend Mr. Barkatali.”
Karen, AutoCart Surgery Dec 22, aged 51.
Sam Peacock
“After the surgery, Mr Barkatali explained... the different things he'd done just to improve the procedure, like he drilled up into the femur to extract stem cells and then put them into the meniscus to increase the blood flow... It's healed very, very well. I went skiing three weeks ago for a week and had no issues at all. I would 100% recommend him to anyone.”
Sam Peacock (Lacrosse Player), Meniscus Repair in October 2023, aged 20.
Chris Grossmith
“Everything was explained fully. I've been cycling, I can walk a lot further without the pain, and I can spend a day gardening and not be crucified at the end of it. Can't really pick any fault in the whole process. Without a shadow of a doubt, 100%.”
Chris Grossmith, Bilateral Partial Knee Replacement in January 2024, aged 65.
Heidi Sanderson
“I'm really lucky now because I can do everything that I could do before the problems arose. I'm also a really good example for anybody out there who's nervous about exercising post-surgery that actually you can get back to where you were”
Heidi (pilates instructor), Partial Knee Replacement in December 2021, aged 50.
Max Jefferson
“Mr Barkatali made me feel so comfortable and reassured. I was pretty stressed out because I was playing rugby at a high level, but he made me feel at ease. After the surgery and recovery, it's brand new again, back to normal—I'm still playing rugby at a high level and it doesn't cause me any grief. He is so empathetic, understanding of your situation, and a true professional. I couldn't recommend anyone more."
Max, Quad ACL Reconstruction 2022, aged 17
