Testimonials

ARTHROSCOPY

"Mr Shepard is a man who gets the job done.  He gives confidence to his patients.  From thinking I may have to walk with a stick or on crutches, I am now happy to walk unaided.  Big thanks!"  HJ (following arthroscopic surgery for arthritis)

"I have had two knee arthroscopies,both procedures (on different knees) carried out by Mr. G.  J. Shepard, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, within a period of 8 months.  The procedures took place at the BMI Beaumont Hospital, Lostock, Bolton.  I have been very satisfied with thelevel of care prior and post surgery.   I have also been very satisfied with the results fromthese procedures as they have alleviated the symptoms that had been presented prior to the surgery.  Mr. Shepardhas also carried out a knee arthroscopy for my husband with great success.  I would have no hesitation inrecommending this medical intervention, carried out by Mr. Shepard, to anyoneneeding the same investigation and/or suffering the same symptoms as myself."  VS (following arthroscopic surgery for early arthritis)
