Can’t sing Mr Thompson’s praises enough. Super efficient, kind and personable and above all felt like we were in expert hands. We have followed instructions to a ‘T’, worked really hard on physio and my son is back training and now competing well within 6 months post op.

I would highly recommend Simon Thompson & am grateful to my GP for referring me to him. He has an excellent manner, explains the diagnostics & operating procedure clearly & instils confidence. He operated on a complex tear of the meniscus & the outcome has been excellent.

Mr Thompson and his staff took very good care of me and my knee from the very first moment to after surgery, suggesting the best plan of action and it resulted in the best outcome that I could imagine, back to sport activities in very little time and a completely pain free knee
