My hubby hurt his knee. He is a cyclist. Bad knee and cycling don’t mix and make for one sad hubby. Good wife tries to fix hubby — calls round all her athlete friends for recommendations — one name comes out on top: Guy Van Herp. It was quite easy to get an appointment, so we made our way into the basement rooms of Meadowbank. Very basic surroundings for such a prestigious, experienced Doctor of Physiotherapy but based on the raving recommendations we don’t let that put us off. After all — a sports centre is a logical place for a physiotherapist who specialises in sports(working with world class athletes) and there is free parking in a central location. My husband was very nervous so wanted me there the whole time. As soon as we meet Dr. Van Herp we are put at ease. Very kind, friendly and knowledgeable. One of the reasons we choose him was his reputation for making quick, accurate diagnoses. Within minutes we had our answer — torn meniscus — but not too bad, possible to heal with care and determination. Not wanting surgery, my hubby agreed to be a model patient and do everything to the letter. So far we have had 2 appointments which included assessment, stretches, exercises, ultrasound and laser light therapy. the knee is getting better and my husband feels better having a diagnosis and a programme to follow. Dr. Van Herp was excellent at explaining what was wrong, what each part of the programme is going to do and how to execute the plan. It’s early days but we feel like we are in very good hands.
