My journey started with Proff Wilson and his team in march/apr 2018, after a consultation and some x-rays I was given my choices. My option was have a double osteotomy on both legs or struggle to walk. By May I had my left knee done and August my right knee which both went very well and my recovery felt good considering the scale of the procedures. It is now Nov 2019 and I am sitting here recovering from having my screws and plates removed which after 4 days feel strong and pain free. All I can say is it is the scariest and best choice I made to get back to a normal way of life ,seeing as I am only in my early 40's there is still a lot I wish to do. I cant thank Adrian, Raghbir Singh Khakha and there team enough for there care and professionalism.read more

Followup from bilateral partial knee replacementIt's nearly  2 years since I had my right partial knee replacement  and 16 months since I had my left partial knee replacement both conducted by Prof Adrian WilsonAll I can say is that its given me a new lease of  life having just retired.  Prior to this I was limping terribly and my walking gait was suffering not to mention the pain. Now , I don't even realise that I have a prosthesis. My walking and activity (within medical limits) is natural and without any issue what so ever. I am leading an active life and  enjoying my retirement at the age of 60 which would not have been possible without having had this surgery . Highly recommend  getting it done .read more

Adrian has now done a correction of my right knee, to address valgus and hypertension which comes from a birth condition called Charcot Marie Tooth. Three months post op and I'm doing very well and back to cycling outdoirs with no pain at all. I have a lot more stability in the knee, and hopefully we'll get round to doing the left one next year with the same results.read more

17th July 2018 I ruptured my ACL. Professor Wilson carried out an ACL repair. 8 weeks after the operation I was back schooling my horse. I can not thank Professor Wilson enough for his amazing empathy, skill and expertise. He's a genius and the speed of my recovery has been miraculous. I have spoken to other people who have had ACL surgery and they can not believe how quickly I have recovered.read more

Adrian is an excellent surgeon who really cares about his work, plus he's a very personable chap. My wife had a full knee replacement earlier in 2018 and that knee is now better than it ever has been.

From the first time I met Professor Wilson I felt confident with the information, diagnosis and recommendations he offered. Following his advice I opted to have a high tibial osteotomy on both legs. The first procedure on my left leg was carried out in December 2017 and my right leg procedure was undertaken in September 2018. Even though I am still recovering from my second procedure I am very pleased with the treatment and care Professor Wilson has provided and the results I have achieved, I was particularly impressed with his personal availability to me had I experienced any concerns post operation. In the event that I need further treatment for my knees in the future I would have no hesitation in consulting Professor Wilson and I certainly have no hesitation in recommending him to others.read more

Professor Wilson performed a derotational Osteotomy on my femur in December 2017 and I’ve just had the metal work taken out. I am extremely impressed with everything that he has done and I am now able to return to normal activities with significantly reduced pain! I’m grateful I was able to find out about Professor Wilson’s work, and experience first hand the beneficial results of such treatment.read more

Professor Wilson carried out an ACL repair procedure on my 11 year old in February 2017, following a skiing accident. My son was devistated at the impact this injury may have on his sport. However he was delighted to be playing competitive rugby and football again by the beginning of the following season. I have recommended Professor Wilson to a number of friends and will continue to do so. We are delighted with the results.read more

Saw the Prof to discuss injury and options on a Tuesday had an ACL repair the following Wednesday. Walked out of hospital on Thursday, drove back to see him two weeks later. 10 weeks on and I've just started running again. Why isn't the repair more widely available ? Can't thank the Prof and his team enough. This isn't faceless private health care, there are people available at the end of the phone and by email who want to support you, and who are genuinely passionate and care about what they do.read more

Professor Wilson carried out a double Osteotomy on my left leg 18 months ago. My leg was bowed and had arthritis due to Cricket and other sports.Before the procedure my knee would be painful and swell up even after a reasonably short walk. Sport was out of the question and I was becoming couch bound.I have to say the surgery has been a complete success, I have just returned from a skiing holiday without pain or a limp and can do 18 holes of Golf without discomfort which was impossible 18 months ago.Many thanks Prof.read more

I have recently undergone a double Osteotomy to correct some serious bowing of my left leg - the result of a number of previous knee operations due to playing rugby and cricket for many years. Previous total ACL reconstruction and subsequent arthroscopic procedures had left the leg weak and in such a poor state that I couldn’t even run after my youngest daughters!My initial consultation with Mr Henry Bourke at Princess Margaret Hospital led me to being referred to Professor Wilson. From the outset, Professor Wilson and his team were fantastic and assessed what the situation was, what the options were, and what the risks could be. After discussing we agreed that the double osteotomy would be the best option for me.The surgery was a great success and I spent 3 days in hospital and was discharged with minimal pain - my only pain relief was paracetamol which is amazing given the procedure. When I came round from the operation and looked down at my leg I couldn’t believe the results - it was completely straight. My family were equally staggered by the amazing result. I had always resigned myself to the fact that my leg would always be bent, I’d be in pain and that I’d never be able to be reasonably mobile again.Once I got home, upon Professor Wilson’s advice, I hired a GameReady Cryogenic machine for a month which massively helped the initial rehab process & started physio after 2 weeks.I am now 5 weeks into rehab and am walking unaided with no pain and am undergoing a physiotherapist treatment plan at Bisham Abbey that has been critical to my rehab. The team there have also been fantastic!I would have no hesitation in urging anyone who has similar conditions to work with Professor Wilson and his team - whilst I am never going to be running around a rugby field again, I do now have a straight leg, am pain free and am looking forward to being more mobile - which were our main objectives.We’d like to thank everyone on the team from the very start, including Professor Wilson’s Admin Team who have been friendly, personable, answered all our many questions and in summary have provided a stress free experience for us all.read more

Following my initial consultation with Professor Wilson he suggested several less invasive procedures for my right knee but it soon became apparent that a knee replacement was the only solution. The care and attention I received from Professor Wilson and his team was second to none. Within a couple of weeks of the surgery I was off all pain killers and more importantly pain free. Prior to the surgery I was only able to walk 5 minutes (in pain), I now do a daily walk of around 1 hour - having this surgery has changed my life and I'm only 10 months post op. I cannot thank Professor Wilson enough, if/when I need another knee replacement he will be the only one I contact.read more

I first saw Professor Wilson after rupturing my ACL playing football. Professor Wilson saw me for an initial consultation and squeezed me in for an operation just a few days later, as he was going away and wanted me to have the operation as soon as possible. Professor Wilsons guidance ensured I was back playing football to the same level and had full confidence in my knee. His knowledge and passion for what he does has always seemed a level above anyone else I have spoken to regarding my knee. I am confident in saying that if it wasn't for Professor Wilson my knee would not feel as good as it does today.read more

Professor Adrian Wilson, has completed a 2 stage reconstruction of my right knee, following a nasty accident in 2015. I am a larger chap and have certainly given Professor Wilson a challenge, however his skill and proffessional attitude has made an unstable knee extremely stable. Through his advice i used a Gameready ice machine which helped the post surgery and in fact had me up on my feet quicker than expected, the real credit goes to his surgery and all the work he has done. Highly recommend Professor Wilson. Top man and i thank youIan livingstonread more

Professor Wilson is a highly skilled and professional surgeon, who is genuinely concerned for the well being of his patients. I had a partial knee replacement in September 2017, and when it became apparent that I was struggling at a review appointment he acted quickly to get me back on track. I would highly recommend Prof Wilson.read more

Living with osteoarthritis in both knees was becoming not only painful but also life limiting. Professor Wilson performed a High Tibial Osteotomy procedure on my right knee in September 2015 and my left knee in March of this year. The difference has been amazing - I'm back to long walks with our dog and the sports I enjoy - and last month I climbed the O2 dome with no problem! Professor Wilson and his team come highly recommended.read more

My son William aged 17 has a history of Osteochondritis Dissecans which has previously presented in both knees (aged 11/12) and was treated with a period of complete rest (no weight bearing) which seemed to improve at the time. This time only the right knee presented as a problem after a long period of standing at work, football and further aggravated by a fall onto concrete and resulted in him not being able to straighten the knee and walk properly with pain and stiffness and some giving way of the knee when walking. Professor Wilson on examining his MRI suggested micro-drilling if the knee was stable via keyhole surgery or if unstable opening my sons knee and excavating/cleaning the unstable fragment and re-fixing with bio-screws. During surgery Professor Wilson made the decision to do the bigger operation as the knee was quite unstable and my son has recovered very quickly from this operation. He had very little pain or swelling, was completely off pain medication by day 5 and after 6 weeks on crutches and in a leg brace attended physiotherapy and was immediately out of the leg brace and on one crutch for a week and then at week 7 was completely off the crutches/driving and doing exercises without any pain or swelling. We are now on week 9 and doing more weight bearing exercises and myself and William are so happy with the results of this surgery and hope he will be back playing football in another 4 months once the knee has fully healed. Professor Wilson comes highly recommended. The operation was carried out at the Candover Suite in Basingstoke with physiotherapy at the Hampshire clinic and the whole experience has been 1st class.read more

Tore my ACL skiing and was put in touch with Adrian as he had apparently been working on an ACL repair procedure that significantly reduced recovery time. I was back riding down big mountains within three months with no problems whatsoever. And the newly strengthened knee spurred me on to go on to even bigger mountain objectives, such as climbing Mont Blanc and snowboarding down the north face. Next summer I'm taking things even higher and heading to the Himalayas to climb and ski a 7500m peak. Adrian's surgery essentially gave me a new lease of life! Really friendly guy, makes you feel very comfortable and did a damn fine job!read more

It is now nearly 5 years since you gave me a part knee replacement.  In that that time I have been very active culminating in a recent trek in the Himalayas, I did a demanding 12-day trek to Everest Base Camp. This has been on my bucket list for a very very long time and prior to the operation it is a trip I could not possibly have even contemplated, I struggled to walk down any kind of incline for any period without an adverse reaction, I covered the many climbs and descents over rough terrain without any adverse reaction whatsoever; remarkable. My heartfelt thanks for enabling this.

You did a micro fracture repair on my right knee in January 2017.

I would like you to know that the operation continues to be a major success. I am back to cycling and snowboarding I have stopped running as per your suggestion. I hope it lasts as long as possible!

I wanted to thank you personally for the outcome I have right now. Apologies it has taken a while to contact you but I didn’t want to “jinx” it !

Straight pins and no hip pain! I am now a confident wearer of shorts and short skirts! Thank you so much – you have changed my life.

I came to see you about 5 years ago now, and you completely made me pain free, after my right knee replacement operation.

I would just like to say thank you, as I’m now living in Cyprus and enjoying scuba diving and golf, things that gave me pain before I saw you. So yet again a massive thank you.

I had a partial knee replacement on my right at the Hampshire Clinic in Basingstoke on 22nd February 2017. Before the operation I had been in quite significant pain, was struggling to sleep and taking lots of pain killers.

I was driving and fully mobile without any crutches within 6 weeks and quickly started to build up the time I could spend walking. I was particularly pleased to be able to test out my knee on the dance floor when my daughter got married last July – I had a wonderful time and danced the night away with the other guest, easily out-dancing my teenage sons! The only lingering side effect was a numbness around the knee itself which persisted for quite a few months but is now completely back to normal. 1 year post op I have no pain at all in the right knee and can comfortably walk the dog for at least 2 hours. I know my left knee is heading in the same direction but, when the time is right, I’ll feel very confident of doing the same again.

My treatment has been outstanding all round and I’m extremely grateful to the whole team involved. It goes without saying that I am extremely grateful to Professor Wilson for all his hard work on my behalf and I’m very glad that he recommended we stay locally for 2 weeks to access the excellent after care and expertise on offer.I must tell you, without exception, all those I spoke to (there’s been a lot!!) had nothing but very high praise for you, post-surgery, in some cases truly life changing, as with the lovely lady from SA who had been through 3 osteotomies (both legs) and had a lot of pre-op pain until you rescued her after the 1st one failed but now intends to play squash again and is pain free, very inspiring to hear, equally uplifting was the big rugby player I met who told me he’s back on the field now and it’s feeling even stronger than his non op leg now.

Although early days, it appears that my operation has been a great success. I would certainly return to Prof. Wilson without hesitation, if the need arises in the future. Based on my own experience, I would recommend unreservedly Prof. Wilson and his team. For me, they did a great job.

Having had a terrible time over the years trying to get my knee fixed, coming to Hampshire clinic was such a different welcome experience. Nothing was left uncovered by Mr Wilson and his team. Everything was explained to me and what the outcome would be. Having had the total knee replacement 18 months ago now it’s been a real life changer. I could not thank them enough.
