What the Patients Say
Thank you for being the first person to listen and help me with my knees. You have helped me overcome a struggle I thought I would live with for the rest of my life and will forever be grateful to you. Hopefully I won’t need the other knee done.

I just wanted to record my thanks to you for referring me to the. I’m not sure if you as the referring clinician get updated, but I have had excellent care under Professor G and his team. The lesions were excised from the anterior of my left knee on 7th January and histopathology has confirmed it to be benign Synovial chondromatosis. I am making a good recovery and although removal from the posterior part of the knee was not undertaken I am hopeful of achieving an improved ROM and a reduction in symptoms. Time will tell what further steps might need to be taken, but it is good to have the precise diagnosis and know that the tumour is non-cancerous.
I am very pleased I came to you for a second opinion on the matter and many thanks for being proactive in making the referral. I feel this has led to a better outcome than the previous conservative treatment.
Best regards

Dear Jai
Infinite thanks for your mission of mercy, well beyond the call of friendship and professional care, last night. No fracture in the foot or ankle. Thanks to your alerting the Duty Doctor, J has been prescribed the same anti-DVT injections, self-administered once daily for the next six weeks as a preventative
measure.
Thank you also for alerting Mr M, your colleague at the Nuffield, who looks after your patients in
your absence.
Warmest best wishes
Dear Mr Chitnavis,
I hope you don’t mind me getting in touch with some good news. 18 months ago you, and your team, repaired my ACL and meniscus. Yesterday, I ran the Cambridge Half Marathon and beat my previous time from before my knee injury, totally pain free!
I cannot express how thankful I am for the second chance at sports you gave me. 18 months ago I couldn’t even imagine running 50m, let alone a half marathon, so this has been transformative for me, both mentally and physically. My knee is now totally back to normal – it is so refreshing to be able to live life normally again and not have to worry about a knee constantly giving away.
Again, thank you so much for all your help in getting me back to full fitness, I will be forever grateful.
Please would you pass on my gratitude to Mr Chitnavis for all the kindness and professionalism he has shown me before, during and after my knee replacement surgery last December 25.
He is a real gentleman and a master in his field of medicine. it has been a great pleasure to have been one of his patients.
