Vivek is into giving life

Vivek carried out hip replacement surgery on me for both hips within a 9 month period Prior to the surgery I was what felt like at the end As I had suffered from a rare disease since I was an early teen which was only competently diagnosed after turning 40 even by the brutally aggressive rate at which I deteriorated at my condition was missed by those who saw me previously I was failed terribly By the time I met Vivek for the first time I could barely move by the time I reached the operating table which was quite soon after around within 3 months where he had given me the opportunity to have the surgery just after a month of seeing him to which I declined as I needed more time to psychologically prepare myself for such a major surgery He was at hand to have my case treated with the upmost urgency and the precare and communication that he provided was exemplary as it was full of compassion I was treated as a person of importance and Vivek always made himself available to me with any matters that I wanted to discuss He made post op appointments for me to discuss my progress and how I felt and how I was finding life post surgery he really did support me thru the most difficult time of my life even work wise Sadly I went onto divorce We talked as friends at times Does Vivek pay this level of care respect to all his patients I found myself asking Regardless this man displays the true compassion of a genuine human being Now regarding the surgeries and the results I must reiterate that I had a rare disease and that it was extremely brutal in terms of what it did to my body The consultants and head of physiotherapy that I had seen leading up to meeting with Vivek could not believe what they saw on the x-rays and what they were assessing especially in such a young person in respect of this type of condition The severity of my condition lead Vivek to let me know that after each surgery that he had never seen anything like it I learned that Vivek Gulati has had an article written about him in The Guardian newspaper on his achievements and successes as a highly decorated surgeon whereby hearing that he had never seen anything like this before made me respect him and his abilities even more because the conditions that he had to work under were ridiculous conditions - being the state that I was in and what he had to surgically navigate thru I feel 100 I am able to run climb move around sharply Ultimately the outcome is that Vivek Gulati has not just given me my life back he has given me a new life Where I am 100 No side affects I never thought I d be able to live a normal life I honestly was looking at how the show was coming to a close that was it for me I couldn t believe it I actually thought that was it I am will always be forever grateful I was told by one of the doctors we re into saving lives May I say this Vivek is into giving life Thank you Vivek

Knee and Hip replacement Homerton Hospital Mr Gulati experience

I was referred to Mr Gulati over two years ago with persistent hip pain which was diagnosed as Bursitis for which I received a course of steroid injections During the course of my treatment it became apparent that the opposite knee was is dire need of replacement and may have been the cause of the hip pain in the first place due to poor alignment Because I had a femoral nail in place from an old fractured femur I had to have a different type of replacement knee The op was very successful and I completed all the physio as prescribed I was kept informed throughout my treatment and my questions and concerns were fully answered I am an exercise instructor so it was important to be able to regain full mobility and strength which I did However within 9-months my hip problem flared up again and I was scheduled for another injection Mr Gulati intervened having seen my recent x-rays and discussed a full replacement with me as a better option to which I agreed I received the operation just prior to the November lockdown and cannot fault the treatment that I had The surgeons anaesthetist the support staff nurses and physio s were all very professional caring and informative I am now completely pain free but still working on developing full strength Thank you Mr Gulati and all involved in my treatments If you are worried about having your hip or knee replaced I can fully recommend Mr Gulati and his team
