What is Knee Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee typically presents with pain and stiffness after long periods without moving, such as first thing in the morning or after sitting for long periods.find out morebook a consultationWho are we?

Knee Osteoarthritis in many cases may be considered as part of the normal wear and tear process which affects many of our joints. Particularly affected are the large weight-bearing joints of our lower limbs such as the hips, knees and ankles. Often, patients will consider an injection as an effective treatment for pain relief if conservative management has not worked, to avoid resorting to surgery such as an invasive knee replacement procedure.
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee typically presents with pain and stiffness after long periods without moving, such as first thing in the morning or after sitting for long periods. Patients often times describe ‘crepitus’ which is noise or clicking coming from the joint. Activities such as standing for long periods, going up and down stairs and bending the knee beyond 90° (right angles) such as when squatting or crouching down become most difficult. Osteoarthritis of the knees can be very debilitating and can have a severe impact on your enjoyment of activities and generally your quality of life, as activities of daily living like shopping and household chores can become very difficult.
I had been in severe pain for over 6 months for a frozen shoulder when my physiotherapist recommended Luke Millward for a guided steriod injection. I was extremely thankful for the speed at which I got an appointment. The clinic in Cambridge was easy to get to (with trouble-free parking) and the service I received from Luke was excellent. He was very personable, explained things to me carefully and carried out the injection with professionalism and empathy. The results have been significant and I wished had visited Luke sooner before the pain had become so debilitating.
I've been seeing Chris Myers and his colleague Alastair Nowell for the past 5 years or so, a period where I have ran 17 marathons (overuse niggles, hamstring tear, multiple calf tears etc) and just last week, to receive an injection (Ostenil Plus) into each big toe joint that had become miserably painful. Under Chris's guidance and expertise, the process was incredibly smooth and completed in a safe, efficient manner. Today is only the 5th day since the injections, yet already I can sense significant improvement. I have no hesitation in recommending these guys to everyone, as they genuinely deliver a brilliant service that will 'literally' get you back on your feet. Thanks everyone.
Professional, knowledgeable and made me feel at ease.
Very thorough and kind service. I was very happy with the treatment I received and all recommendations that were made.
