Mr Paul Henderson, FRCS (Tr&Orth)
Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
Mr Paul Henderson (FRCS (Tr&Orth)) is a consultant orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in knee replacement, both total and partial (unicompartmental) arthroplasty. He checks the clinical content of Save Your Knees.
He keeps the site straight on the procedure, the choice between a total and a partial replacement, the risks, and the demanding recovery, against guidance from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the National Joint Registry, and NICE.
His review backs the facts, not a plan for your knee. It isn’t personal medical advice and forms no doctor-patient relationship; that’s between you and your own surgical team, who can assess you and follow you up over time.
