Knee Replacement Surgery
Partial and total knee replacement is one of the most successful surgical interventions. Patients who are suffering arthritic conditions are returned to a high level of function, due to improvements in both pain and mobility.
Richard has extensive experience in all aspects of knee joint replacement, from partial to total knee replacement, right through to revision and salvage surgery.
All the surgical implants Richard uses are tried and proven.
Following completion of his orthopaedic training in New Zealand, Richard spent a further 12 months in Vancouver, Canada, training in state-of-art aspects of joint reconstruction, including:
minimally invasive techniques
resurfacing surgery
computer-assisted surgery
complex reconstructions for extensive bone loss, infection, deformity, tumour reconstructions, etc.
revision surgery.
