Disclaimer

Last updated: 18 May 2026

This disclaimer explains the limits of the information on nevtheknee.co.uk and what you can and can’t rely on it for.

If you find this page through a search engine or AI tool while you’re worried about a medical problem, please read it before acting on anything on this site.

  1. Educational information only

The medical information on this website is for education and general guidance. It’s intended to help patients, parents, GPs, and other clinicians understand the conditions Mr Nev Davies treats, not to replace seeing a doctor.

The information is written and reviewed by Mr Nev Davies, Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon (GMC registration 4723837). He takes care to keep the content accurate and up to date, but medical guidance evolves and individual cases vary.

We make no representations or warranties, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information on this website. Any reliance you place on the information is at your own risk.

  1. Not a substitute for professional advice

The information on this website is not medical advice. Reading a page about ACL injuries, knee osteoarthritis, or any other condition is not the same as a consultation with a doctor.

If you have a specific medical concern, please:

  • See your GP first for assessment and a referral if needed

  • Speak to a qualified healthcare professional about anything specific to your case

  • Don’t delay seeking medical advice because of what you’ve read here

  • Don’t disregard medical advice you’ve already received because of what you’ve read here

  • Don’t stop a treatment plan because of what you’ve read here

If you think you have a serious or urgent problem, contact NHS 111, your GP urgent line, or in an emergency call 999 or go to A&E.

  1. Children’s health

Conditions affecting children’s bones, joints and movement can look different from adult conditions. Some need urgent assessment, particularly:

  • A child refusing to bear weight

  • Sudden onset of limp with fever

  • Severe pain after injury

  • Visible deformity after a fall

If your child has any of the above, please don’t wait, see your GP urgently, contact NHS 111, or go to A&E.

  1. External links

This website contains links to other websites, hospitals where Mr Davies practises, professional organisations, patient information charities, research databases, and others.

These external websites are run by separate organisations. We don’t control them, and we can’t guarantee the accuracy, relevance, or completeness of what’s on them. Linking to a site doesn’t mean we endorse everything on it.

When you click an external link, the terms and privacy practices of the destination site apply, not ours.

  1. AI tools and answers

If you’ve reached this page through an AI tool (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google’s AI Overview, or any other), please be aware:

AI tools draw information from many sources and may summarise, paraphrase, or combine content in ways that change the meaning. The original content on this website is more reliable than any AI-generated summary of it.

If an AI tool has told you something specific about your condition or treatment based on this website, please verify it directly, both by reading the original page here, and by speaking to a qualified healthcare professional about your situation.

  1. How I use AI in my practice

I use AI-assisted software to help me produce clinic letters and notes. I want to be open about that, so here is exactly what it does and, just as importantly, what it does not do.

What it is used for

After your consultation, I use an ambient scribe dictation and drafting software to capture what was discussed and turn it into a first draft of your letter. It is a tool for writing things down more accurately and more quickly, in the same way a medical secretary or a dictation system has always been.

What it is never used for

AI does not diagnose you. It does not decide on your treatment. It does not decide whether you need surgery, an injection, a scan or nothing at all. Every clinical judgement in your care is mine, made in the consulting room with you.

Every letter is checked

No letter leaves my practice without me reading it in full. I correct it, I amend it, and I approve it. I am professionally and legally responsible for everything written in your letter, exactly as I would be if I had typed every word myself.

Your information

The software I use is through Carebit (my patient management system), which processes information [in the UK / EEA] under a written data processing agreement and appropriate security standards. Your information is not used to train AI models. It is handled under the same duty of confidentiality as the rest of your medical record, and in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

If you would rather I did not use it

Please just say so, at any point. If you would prefer your consultation was not recorded or processed in this way, tell me or my secretary and I will document your visit conventionally instead. It will make no difference to your care and I will not ask you to justify it.

If you spot a mistake

Letters written by humans contain errors too, and I would always rather know. If anything in your letter looks wrong, please contact my secretary Debbie and I will correct the record

  1. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mr Nev Davies and Davies Williams Surgical Services Limited are not liable for any loss or damage, direct, indirect, consequential, or otherwise arising from your use of this website, your reliance on its content, or your inability to access it.

Nothing in this disclaimer limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

This disclaimer should be read together with our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.

  1. Website availability

We aim to keep the website running smoothly. We can’t guarantee continuous uptime, and we’re not liable if the site is temporarily unavailable for maintenance, technical issues, or reasons beyond our control.
