I can't praise 'Dr Paddy' highly enough. From a clear explanation of the proposed procedure, to carrying out the operation and even taking the time to drop in on me at discharge, he was superb. The quality of his surgical technique is borne out by an amazingly speedy recovery. In less than three weeks I was off crutches around the house, in less than 5 weeks taking short walks outside and driving, all without any noticeable discomfort or difficulty. 5 stars are not enough. THANK YOU!!

Dr Subramanian has given me my life back. He told me clearly that I needed a hip replacement and set about arranging the operation quickly. The care I had was exemplary from first consultation, the operation day and the physiotherapy that followed. I cannot thank the team enough for everything they have done. You are all amazing.

It was good to see Mr Subramanian after my surgery. He said I was walking better. He also said he would see me in 20years time which made me smile. I probably didn't thank him enough for my surgery which has been life changing.
