Mr Krishnan was amazing, from start to finish, initially in terms of explaining the process for my hip surgery, through the surgery itself and in post-operative care. I really felt I was in expert care throughout and the results have been fantastic. I would highly recommend him

I have had a hip replacement by Mr Krishnan at the Chiltern on an NHS referral.
The treatment I gave received was superb in all respects and Mr Krishnan's expertise and explanations put me at ease throughout.
I would recommend him to anyone for orthopaedic surgery.

Mr Krishnan listened to me, examined me and said that he could replace my hip and lengthen my leg as much as he could. I had confidence in him and he answered all of my questions. I've had a noticeably short leg which has become progressively worse over the last 14 years because of my Scoliosis. The operation went well. Mr Krishnan visited me before and after the operation and asked me if I had any further questions. I was up the next morning and had visits from the Physiotherapist every day, using a zimmer frame, then crutches and finally sticks.The Physiotherapy Department said that I will be able to continue Walking and Rambling again. I had Hydrotherapy and Physiotherapy Appointments tailored to my recovery and have continued with the exercise regime. I am free of pain, do not have to wear adapted shoes and can walk barefoot for the first time in years.Thank you Mr Krishnan, a very skilled Surgeon who has given me the ability to live life to the full and enjoy an active future.

I was referred to Mr. Krishnan at The Chilterns Hospital through the NHS to receive a new hip. At the consultation I was given an idea of which month that it would take place and was very happy to go ahead after listening to all the information needed to make a decision. The hospital was brilliant from day one and the surgery was performed by Mr Krishnan after a visit to inform me about the operation. I was up and walking on two walking sticks the next day, and went home after 3 nights of receiving excellent care from all involved. I have now had my 6 week check and am good to go.
I cannot thank Mr. Krishnan enough for my new hip which is working beautifully and also the very small scar which has healed beautifully. I will need my other hip replaced in due course and will hope for Mr. Krishnan to perform that operation too, as I feel that I am in the best hands possible. I would recommend him to anyone for his care and skills. I was so lucky to be referred to him. Thank you Mr. Krishnan,The Chilterns and the NHS.
