Mr Kirti Moholkar

Orthopaedic Consultant

I am a qualified orthopaedic surgeon and my medicolegal reports provide high quality, objective medical advice and evidence and include a clear prognosis, the range of expert opinion and appropriate references. I strive for clarity, readability and accuracy, with technical medical terms being avoided or explained.

Examinations can normally be performed within a period of four weeks and a written report provided to the instructing solicitor within two-four weeks of formal instructions being received, except in more complex cases, where timing will depend on availability of all the relevant patient records. I am happy to have an initial telephone discussion about any case with a solicitor, and does not make any charge for this service.

• full time Consultant in Orthopaedic Surgery in both NHS and private practice since 2004
