Mr Gooding now offers partial knee replacement, total knee replacement and total hip replacement robotic orthopaedic surgery at Nuffield Health Cambridge Hospital with the state-of-the-art Mako™ robotic arm system. Mr Gooding is a member of the group of surgeons known as SMART (Specialist Mako Assisted Robotic Team) based at the hospital.
