Sports, together with hard physical work and a family history of arthritis has resulted in damage to most joints in my body. Dr Limbers has undertaken ankle, and just recently a total knee replacement. Both of these procedures have been a total success, pain free, full movement returned enabling me to continue to participate in the activities that I enjoy the most. No doubt further procedures await me, I will have no hesitation in returning to John for these also.I have no hesitation in recommending Dr Limbers to others, if I could give 6 stars I would!

I have just had a double knee replacement with Dr Limbers. This is the second surgery he has performed on me-the first was a hip replacement last October. These two operations have given me my life back. I’m only 53 and therefore was worried about the knee surgery. I had lots of questions for Dr Limbers. He explained things brilliantly and reassured me throughout and he also dispelled several ‘myths’ regarding the surgery. For the first time in 25 years I can walk and stand without pain and the fear of my arthritic knees giving out on me. If you are living with constant pain don’t wait. Dr Limbers and the team at Gosford Private Hospital are professional, caring and determined to get the best result. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Just reached the 7 week mark of having my 2nd knee replacement under Dr John Limbers. What an amazing experience, I was home within 5 days, basically pain free after nearly 4 months of constant pain. Now post rehab at the Gosford Private Hospital, I am almost back to normal, no walking aids since week 5 and a totally different experience to my first one. Dr Limbers and his staff have been amazing.

Dr Limbers performed a total knee replacement on my left knee at Gosford Private hospital on 20/07/2023 . I was up on my feet the next day & came home on the 23/07/2023. I recovered at home quickly with the twice weekly physiotherapy & hydrotherapy sessions at the hospital. I have just done my first 6 weeks after my operation & ride my bike a few kms a day as well as walk about 3 km a day. The process is not pain free but manageable with only a small scar on the outside of my knee. Dr Limbers will definitely be the go to surgeon for my other knee when I need it replaced & have no hesitation in giving my 5 star rating. Yours Sincerely Owenn Spark

I am 100% happy with all the work he has done on me. I have had bilateral total knee replacements and a right hip replacement, and everything is working beautifully. I am 71 and I have a whole new lease on life, no longer hindered by the pain of walking. I thoroughly recommend Dr. John Limbers.

Recently I was very fortunate to be referred to Dr John Limbers with major problems with my left hip. After a very thorough examination and study of my scans and X Rays Dr Limbers proposed a full hip replacement and ceramic insert. He explained the whole process in an easy to follow manner including all post operative treatments. Tomorrow it will be 6 weeks post surgery, Wow, amazing, unbelievable are some words that come to mind !I find it hard to believe how much I have improved so much, so quickly and almost zero pain. I am walking without aids and I haven't felt this good in years. His staff and all those at Gosford Private Hospital were also amazing with their care and support, prior to operation, during hospital and Exercise Physiologists Post Op rehabilitation. I cannot thank him enough, I only wish I had done it sooner. If you want Terrific care from a Professional, Caring and Dedicated Team then call Dr.John Limbers now !!!From; Chris Kokegei an eternally grateful patient.

Dr Limbers performed a total knee replacement surgery on my right knee. His consultation provided me with all the information I needed to make an informed decision. From day 1 I have had minimal to no pain at all. I was up taking my 1st steps within 12 hours of arriving on the Ward & haven’t looked back. I am 7 weeks post surgery & life is almost back to normal. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Limbers to anyone contemplating knee surgery.

I would like to thank Dr John Limbers for my recent hip replacement surgery. I had been in pain and limited movement for over 2 years then finally went to Dr Limbers and after a short wait had the operation. It has been 7 weeks post op and I can already feel the improvement in movement and no more constant pain. Dr Limbers explains everything about the operation and the expected recovery time. His bed side manor is five star. Dr Limbers even rang my wife straight after surgery and explained how everything went.Thanks Steve Field

update - Mar 2023; now bilateral with other side done by Dr Limbers.Since 3 years ago, Dr Limbers is much the same fellow per my comments below, maybe now even better. He has also improved his methodology with even more analysis of the lumbar and pelvic positioning w.r.t. the TRH to be done. Pretty impressive.With the 2nd THR, so other side and am now bilateral, I was far more prepared physically and mentally; I'd strongly urge anyone getting THR to get a PRE-op plan from a physio, then about 2-3 weeks after surgery, do a POST-op plan with them. I did this time around, not the 1st, and the outcome after is even better. Per discussion with Dr L, I am about 6-7 wks ahead of 1st operation; back full time at gym 12 days after surgery, referring first grade u14 soccer (e.g. running) and have already booked winter ski trip with kids.So all up, really successful two ops. If you have any concerns or any sort of questions do not be shy about asking Dr Limbers, he will carefully and wisely recommend options that are in your best interest.Also should be noted his staff in Sydney office are very good; polite and prompt to answer any questions or concerns.====Dr Limbers did my TRH in Jan 2020.I would 110% concur with all the 5/5 previous reviews; Dr John is not only a great surgeon but his 'bed side manner' at the referral, in surgery, immediate post-op check, and 6 week follow-up where exceptional. Don't get me wrong, you should choose a surgeon on skill and results but the non-tangible comes into it too. In my case, I am very technically oriented and cross check everything at work and home. No different here; I consulted three surgeons and although they were all good, Dr John out scored them not only technically but also on the human side so that I felt comfortable to ask technical and medical questions more than adequately. He listened carefully to not only my questions but also my suggestions for certain types of prosthetics that he happily gave me pros and cons for.Another thing to consider - although Dr John is good he knows he can do better ... by using a robot (Mako) as part of the surgery; it assists in getting the position as correct as possible. He will explain better than I, but it is a no brainer that a technical or medical person should use the best tools available to them. If they can get better accuracy and a better result, costs considered, then why not use it? This was one of my main criteria was to find a surgeon that used a Mako robot to assist and get the 'replacement parts' put into the right angle, distance and length. I wanted as close as possible a natural result as I am young and do a lot of sports with my kids - Dr Johns achieved that in spades. I am very pleased.

Dr. Limbers replaced my right knee just 7 weeks ago using the Mako robotic procedure which has allowed me to have an extremely speedy and comfortable recovery. I only required panadol to manage my 2 weeks of pain following my discharge from hospital.Dr Limbers was once responsible for very successfully repairing my severed achilles tendon and now has done a superb job of giving me a new knee that will allow me to return to my sporting activities. He is an excellent surgeon , very thorough and most informative. I cannot thank him enough.

Dr Limbers performed a Mako Robotic Total Hip Replacement on my left hip eight weeks ago . He is very professional and caring through the whole process starting with the first consultation, the surgery and post surgery care. I can not be more happy about the outcome. Less than six weeks after surgery I was walking, swimming and riding bicycle with no restriction or pain. I'm getting back to my life again after twelve month of pain and limping. I would strongly recommend Dr Limbers and his team without any hesitation.

My recent hip replacement has been an astonishing success thanks to the skill of Dr Limbers. He is enthusiastic with well founded confidence, patient in answering questions and clear in his explanation of the process. Operation in the morning and on my feet the same afternoon, home a few days later. Pre and post physio is the key to making the most of the surgeon's skill.

6 weeks ago my husband who is 83 years old had a Mako Robotic Knee Replacement carried out by John Limbers. As he had had a previous knee replacement in Sydney 6 years ago done the conventional way we obviously were a little concerned but his explanation of the procedure convinced us. This type of surgery proved very successful he was up walking within 2 days and almost no pain management. Apart from the skills that Dr John has it was a pleasure to deal with a professionaland empathetic person. We can now venture onto our 3 month overseas trip in June Thank you Dr John!!

Just hit six-week post op and I can't be happier with the results. Dr limbers from the initial appointment kept we well informed of expectations and the process. On the day of the surgery, he let me know what to expect again along with his team keeping me calm and aware of what was happening.Post-surgery whilst in hospital he checked in regular on my progress. Along with the great post and rehab team I am back on the bike and have great flexion and returning strength.I at some point will need my other knee done and I would not hesitate in going back to Dr Limbers.Thank you for helping me return to a normal life.RegardMichael Hull

Most people who decide to have a hip replacement don't know what they don't know about the long term implications of the different techniques used to perform the surgery. I was no exception. I feel very fortunate to have been referred to Dr Limbers. He uses a robotic-assisted direct anterior approach that does not involve cutting any muscles resulting in a much faster recovery and very few movement restrictions compared to posterior or lateral approaches. Six weeks on, I have no pain when walking or climbing stairs. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr Limbers and his team for this procedure.

I would strongly recommend Dr Limbers, after he performed a total hip replacement for me. He was professional, explained the operation clearly and took the time to answer my questions and be considerate to my wishes prior to my surgery. 6wks post op and I have a great range movement with nil issues or concerns throughout my experience.

Dr Limbers did an excellent job replacing my left hip, the limp and pain that I tolerated before the surgery is well and truly a thing of the past.The range of motion and relaxed muscles after only 8 weeks surprised my chiro. Even the leg length was the same for both legs. For years my pelvis was rotating as the left hip muscles tightened and the left leg shortened as a result of the pelvis rotation between chiro visits and this time pelvis hadn't rotated.I am lucky that my GP referred me to Dr Limbers and strongly recommend Dr Limbers to anyone considering a hip replacement.

Six weeks ago Dr Limbers performed a Mako Robotic Hip Replacement on me. I would recommend this amazing specialist to anyone. The whole time you are in his rooms, you are cared for, he is very relaxed and informative, and he listens to you. He is very approachable and very skilled. I have had the best possible outcome with my hip and the best care possible.Financially Dr Limbers is very reasonable, and apart from his surgical skills , his bedside manner is very caring. Whilst I was in hospital he visited me and his other patients every day. I would highly recommend Dr Limbers. I would like to mention Dr Limbers surgical assistant Sr Leanne Flynn. I received a phone call from this lovely lady a few days after my surgery once I was discharged from hospital. Sr Leanne was concerned how my recovery was going and was very helpful with advice. Thank you very much Dr Limbers and your team.

I had a knee replacement op. At six weeks, I am way ahead re recovery time/condition, and pain free (for the first time in years!). Cannot recommend John Limbers more highly (and it’s the general consensus when you ask those in the known in the area). Professional, very capable, and easy to talk to. I am grateful I went with John - Thank you very much.Addition, one year later (September 2022): He did my other knee - same great result… that knee also doing very well no indeed. Can’t recommend Dr Limbers enough.

Several friends who had double knee replacements recommended Dr Limbers after great results. I am just sorry that I wasted 5 years before deciding on surgery. Whole process was not as intimidating as I had imagined and the results exceeded expectations. You are back on your feet before you know it. I can now resume a normal life walking, playing pickleball and enjoying my grandchildren.

I had a left hip replacement with Dr. Limbers using the Mako Robotic Arm-Assisted in December 2021. I am very pleased with the outcome of the surgery. I am pain free and healing well. Dr. Limbers was very pleasant and explained the procedure very well and answered all my questions. I would certainly recommend him for orthopaedic surgery.

I could not rate this doctor more highly. Dr Limbers gave me a knee replacement in 2018 and then a hip replacement in late 2021. I commented here on the knee replacement under the name of Steve Wotshisface. The more recent hip replacement was quite amazing. The surgery was completely successful and I am back to my usual life again. Most importantly, the recovery time was remarkably quick. My recovery was commented on by many medical staff. The physiotherapists were surprised at my quick recovery. A nurse during my hospital stay said very quietly to me "all of Dr Limbers patients seem to recover quickly." The pain management nurse/ doctor(?) was surprised at how little medication I required in the days following the surgery.As with my knee post op, Dr Limbers was again actively interested in my recovery; not that there was much to do. I can only guess that the quick recovery is due to him being extraordinarily careful during the surgery.The anesthetist working with Dr Limbers on both of my surgeries was Dr Coonan. Again, no problems at all and he was very careful in discussing my medical history before deciding what to do during the surgery. A really nice bloke as well.From my experience I thoroughly endorse and recommend Dr Limbers, Dr Coonan, the San Hospital and their wonderful staff and I also recommend robotic surgery for hips and knees.If you read this good luck with your surgery!!

Dr Limbers done my full right knee replacement using Mako robot procedure 6 weeks ago. From the operation to the recovery has been amazing. With a 125 bend and 0.1 straightening I couldn’t ask for a better outcome. Dr Limbers is very professional explaining everything in terms that I could understand. He was so helpful with the questions and concerns that I had. My incision is on the right of my knee which during physiotherapy I noticed that I was the only one. He explained it was for better bend and to be able to kneel again. Which I am able to do. I recommend Dr limbers to anyone getting a knee replacement.

I am a retired Geriatrician.

Dr John Limbers operated on my ankle a few months ago. I have suffered from inflammation and chronic pain for around 10 years after unsuccessful surgery from another surgeon.My ankle has improved immeasurably. I can now walk with a straight leg. My hip pain has gone and my knee pain has reduced considerably. I am cross training, playing walking football and bush walking. I have more mobility and strength in my ankle than I have had in 15 years. My quality of life has increased and I hope to start running again in the new year.Dr Limbers has a caring manner which I have not always found with specialist surgeons. I am very pleased to have chosen Dr Limbers for my surgery.

I went to see Dr Limbers not knowing the extent of my hip degeneration. I answered “yes” to all his questions re pain, discomfort, limited ability and movement. I needed a R Robotic hip replacement, which has been such a wonderful improvement for me. Dr Limbers explained everything, put me at ease, his office girls are very professional as well. My recovery went as planned, and I’m very happy with the result. Thank you, Dr Limbers.

I have just had my follow-up consultation with Dr Limbers after my second total hip replacement. I am so pleased to have found such a great orthopaedic surgeon. After suffering chronic hip pain for several years prior to my first surgery, I was amazed that I was virtually pain free immediately when I woke up from the anaesthetic. I therefore had no hesitation in making an appointment with Dr Limbers soon after experiencing pain in my other hip. Once again, I had no pain after the surgery and I am now able to live my life much the same as before the first surgery. Dr Limbers explained the procedure at the first consultation and has been very supportive throughout. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone suffering hip pain.

When I knew it was time for a full hip replacement at 75yrs old I asked a friend, a nurse with many years experience in orthopaedic wards who they would recommend for my surgery. Dr. Limbers was there answer. I underwent robotic surgery on my right hip, spent 2 nights in Hospital and walked in my front gate on the 3rd day with the aid of only a walking stick. From that day on I had no need for pain medication. My 6 week return visit to Dr.Limbers showed excellent results and I was back on the road cycling the next day. My Nurse was right and Dr. Limbers gets 10/10 as a surgeon with a bedside manner as pleasant as the man himself.Thanks Docll Kind Regards Chris

A very good doctor. I had knee replacement surgery 3 years ago and it has been life changing. Dr Limbers has all the things you want in a surgeon; first and foremost he did a great job on the surgery; secondly I never felt abandoned in the post op care; and thirdly he showed kindness and compassion from the first consultation to the last. A nice bloke and very competent in my experience.

I did a great deal of homework before choosing Dr Limbers to do bilateral (two) knee replacement on both my pain ridden knees. I had heard so much conflicting information out in the market place about different surgeons that it was of the utmost importance that I choose well. My excellent results is a true and accurate testament of how accomplished Dr Limbers is at his profession. I recommend him with the highest degree of sincerity. I am walking freely after five weeks from date of surgery. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better result.

The food was plentiful and extremely enjoyable. Facilities were very clean and well looked after.Dr Limbers office staff were very pleasant and helpful at all times.I would recommend Dr Limbers to anyone looking for an orthopaedic surgeon he is a very special specialist!

My experience with DR Limbers. I found him to be very good he came highly recommended from my GP. I had both knees replaced at the same time hesitant at first but after having the operation from Dr Limbers recommendation to have both done at the same time has been a huge success for me. I would highly recommend Dr Limbers to anyone who is looking down the barrel of 1 or both knees to be replaced.

I had both hips replaced (10 weeks apart) by Dr Limbers and have had excellent results with both. Additionally, the recovery time was very short.Dr Limbers is not only a superior surgeon but he is also conscientious, visiting every day while I was in hospital. I now have two perfect hips that will last me the rest of my life. Highly recommended!

I had a Total Knee Replacement with Dr Limbers nearly 7 weeks ago, and found the experience much more pleasant than I had expected. Before the operation he explained the process to me very thoroughly, also referring me to a pre and post-op physiotherapist, at no cost to myself, who monitored my progress each day via a video link, setting and tailoring to my specific needs a very useful exercise regime.I have no hesitation whatever in recommending Dr Limbers, whom I found to be highly professional, courteous and very likeable.
