- Partial knee replacement. I was hesitant about having a total knee replacement and Mr Mahmud explained that I was suitable for a partial knee replacement and the advantages in my case. It seemed the perfect solution to my problems. He spent time explaining the recovery process which was accurate. I’m 12 weeks post surgery and getting on with my life. Very happy with the outcome and Mr Mahmud’s care.
- Tahir Mahmud provided exemplary expert care throughout delivered with an understanding of my aspirations and concerns
- From the first consultation Mr Mahmud explained the knee injury that I’d suffered and why surgery was essential. He came to see me prior to surgery and I was totally reassured that he was going to repair the injury and do his best for me to recover to previous activities. I was only in surgery for a short time even though my meniscus tear was considered complex. I had a follow up six weeks later and he was so reassuring with the progress I’d made. I fully recommend him for all knee injuries.
- Fantastic experience with Mr Mahmud. He was very professional, explained everything clearly and we had fantastic treatment. I can’t recommend him enough! Thank you!
- After a successful partial knee replacement 6 years ago , I had a total knee replacement on my other leg 12 weeks ago.

Acting upon his and physiotherapist advice I have maintained a regular exercise regime which has obviously helped in my recovery.Doctor's response -Dear Eric thank you for leaving a kind review.
