- My elderly mother had a full hip replacement at Colchester Hospital. Consultant care was good and care at the new hip clinic was excellent. Operation went very well, wound healed quickly and follow up appointment addressed any concerns. Recovery with physio has made a real difference to improved independence and quality of life.
- What an excellent surgeon - Mr Boddu carried recently carried total knee replacement surgery to my right knee as well as straightening my leg which over the years had become very deformed. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome or the treatment I received and can’t thank Mr Boddu enough.
- Mr Boddu was excellent from the start, I cannot recommend him enough. My life has been transformed with my new hip!
