Dr. Peter Kempshall is a true expert in his field. After my ACL tear during a self-defense grading, his surgical skills and compassionate care guided me to nearly full recovery in just six months. I'm incredibly grateful for his expertise and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of orthopedic care.

Explanation

I had a brilliant experience with Mr Kempshall and the team at Winfield Hospital and would thoroughly recommend and endorse their knee clinic. As an international masters hockey player with a history of knee issues, I sought Mr Kempshall's advice in early 2023 for an ongoing issue with one knee and concerns about the other. We agreed a plan, which involved an operation on one knee and rehab on that and the other through the on-site physio team. The initial advice, procedure, after-care and rehab provided by Mr Kempshall and the team at Winfield Hospital were all first- rate (they're also all super-friendly) and enabled me to get back to playing hockey within a few months and then to be re-selected for the 2024 masters hockey cycle for Wales O55s. This year we have trips to 2 world cups and, having recovered strength and speed through the tailored rehab programme provided to me, things have gone really well so far with a silver medal at the March 2024 Masters World Cup Indoor tournament in Nottingham. Many thanks to Mr Kempshall and the Winfield Team!

Mr Kempshall was extremely understanding and kind. He is also a runner so had empathy with me regarding knee pain. He explained exactly what was happening with my knee and talked through what should happen next. Mr Kempshall had a very positive attitude and I left feeling much more optimistic.

Put my concerns to rest, but didn’t ‘assume’ anything which I’ve had with other consultants. Made sure all the t’s were crossed and I’s dotted and I can go away now knowing it’s just a slightly wearing knee cap and I can help this myself!
