It is now some 7 months since my full knee and kneecap replacement op.

Firstly I would like to say that from the first time I stood on my leg after the operation I was amazed at how quickly I recovered. After a few days I could weight-bear on it. Then the subsequent progress to walking on the leg. Even after a week I found myself forgetting my crutches.

I must say that I followed my exercise regime rigidly and I am sure that I gained great benefit from building up the muscle-tone in both my legs. Equally I believe that the care and attention to detail you showed in the surgery meant that my knee was disturbed minimally so there was as little soreness as there could possibly be. The mechanical cushion you had set up for me under my knee in bed which bent my leg whilst just lying there and the excellent physio and advice given to me regarding exercises have all contributed to my quick and sound recovery

My progress has continued and I went for my first walk, 1 Mile at 5 weeks after my op. I was staggered at my progress. From there I gradually worked my way up to 3 miles after 2 months, 4 miles – 4 months, 6 miles – 5 months. Since when I have stopped counting.

May give you my utmost thanks for the wonderful job which you did for me.

I had suffered with pain in my left knee since a biking accident in 2015. I had injections in early 2016 this helped for about a week.

I recently had an arthroscopy and repair of a tendon by Prof. Jari. I cannot believe how this has given me my life back. I am a staff nurse working 12 hour shifts, this was agony before the surgery. Now I am back to my normal self, taking my grandchildren on long walks which they love on my days off. Prof. Jari is such a down to earth person. I felt very comfortable the first time I met him and knew that I was in good hands for my surgery.

I would recommend Prof. Jari to my family and friends with the knowledge that they are in great hands.

Professor Jari had been recommended to me by a family friend who had bilateral knee replacements, with a marvellous outcome after suffering for many years.

On my first appointment Professor Jari explained knee replacement surgery to me in great detail. I decided that a knee replacement would be the best way forward for me. On a further appointment Professor Jari gave me his reassurance before signing the consent form. I am extremely delighted with the outcome of my surgery. The aftercare I found to be excellent. The physiotherapy team were very good and at one point mentioned that Professor Jari’s patients always do very well. I am extremely delighted with my replacement knee surgery. At follow-up appointments, I always found Professor Jari to be very professional, with a charming manner at all times.

Professor Jari’s team are so courteous and his Practice Manager, Claire is a very pleasant and helpful lady.

Prof Jari did such a good job on my personalised total knee replacement knee last August that I’m undertaking a 190 mile charity walk from Northumberland to Cheshire this July. I’m going on 14 mile practise sessions at present and able to carry on when others more experienced in ‘walking’ fall by the wayside.

Patella Tendon ACL Reconstruction

I started agility work around the 13 week mark and return to full training on 17/07/16. 1 month of full contact training and a return to sport on 16/08/16. After Professor Jari’s advice to take my time returning back, I gradually built up my time on the pitch from 30 minutes with 2 games a week and played my first full 90 minutes in the first team on 10/09/16.

I was told by my local hospital  I needed a knee replacement. I came home and researched for a knee surgeon who I could have confidence in. I read about Professor Jari  and he accepted me as a patient. I am so glad he did. My treatment had been excellent at all times. I was in hospital for 2 days during which time I had excellent nursing. After that I went for physio sessions and was encouraged at all times. Already after only 7 weeks my knee is much less painful than before the operation and is improving each day. I would highly recommend  Professor Jari and if I ever need orthopaedic  treatment he will be my first choice.

I was having terrible pain in my left knee, I had an injection in it but unfortunately, it made no difference, then I had key hole surgery to no avail, I went to see Mr Jari at the Oaklands, a private hospital which took N.H.S patients what a beautiful place, the staff are lovely, I had an appointment to see Mr Jari he told me I needed a total knee replacement, I was shocked at first so that is what it had to be, I was only in hospital one night that was five months ago,the hospital staff were all very helpful,  I went back to see Mr Jari he said it was doing nicely, I am very pleased with my knee, no knee pain, it doesn’t happen over night, but I am getting there, I was told it could take up to twelve months to heal properly. I am really pleased with the treatment I received, Mr Jari was lovely, a really nice man. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.

I recently had a Knee Arthroscopy performed by Prof. Jari. I have had 2 of these operations before, but this one was by far less painful, even though I left with crutches and painkillers the next day I did not need them. I was able to walk a couple of miles after 4 days, even the Physio commented how advanced I was. I can only complement Prof. Jari on his work.

I would like to thank you for your recent attention to repair a complex meniscus tear.  From my initial consultation, through surgery and rehabilitation to my final visit to your clinic, I have been absolutely delighted with the professionalism, care and consideration shown by you and your team.At each stage, you provided clarity and realism which enabled me to make appropriate choices regarding my treatment.  The surgery itself proceeded exactly to plan with very little discomfort or inconvenience.  Incredibly, the first thing I noticed was the complete absence of the knee pain I had been suffering for almost two years. Within a couple of hours of surgery I was walking with the aid of crutches; within the space of a couple of days I had dispensed with crutches; after only one week I was driving and able to carry out routine day to day tasks without difficulty – not bad for a sixty three year old!  Two months on, I can describe the overall result in one word …… incredible! I’m now building up on the walking and expect to be fit to tackle the great outdoors again in Spring.

With kind regards and much appreciation of your skill and expertise.

Knee arthroscopy

After 4 weeks post op and being able to kneel professor Jari advised me to start strengthening every other day alternating between high rep low load and low rep heavier load with a particular focus on single leg strengthening so that I didn’t favour my left leg. I did this up to the 12 week mark. My acute sharp anterior knee pain over the patella tendon graft area had gone after approximately 9-10 weeks after keeping to the advised single leg strengthening programme.
