"Brilliant care"

About: Chelsea & Westminster Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

I have had too many birthdays so I have creaky knees. Thanks to the care of my Consultant and his readiness to support me in my desire to embrace conservative and minimal intervention I hope to push back the time when I may need knee replacements.

I was offered Durolane joint injections some years ago at Chelsea and Westminster... having been told by another hospital that there was no other option for me than replacement.

Thanks to my Consultant and Durolane I am again pain free without any drugs only 2 weeks after my injections. Yesterday I walked 24,000 steps and ran down a flight of stairs without even having to stop to think.

This treatment has been a game changer and absolute life saver.

I am able to work full time on my feet all day and do exercise. Since my first injections several years ago I have been able to lose 6 stones in weight. Thank you so much.
