I do know my knees are in trouble and it has taken some time to get to this point. As soon as I spoke to Dr Shibu Krishnan he listened and checked my old x-rays and could see how bad they were. Straight away he wanted more x-rays on my left knee which was done there and then. I waited and he called me back in and the operation was on and he said end of February 2018. Just after Christmas he phoned to say can I come on the 19th January as there has been some cancellations, I jumped at the chance and what service I had it was fantastic from all the departments at Chiltern Hospital. Thank you. 8 to 9 weeks on I am now cycling on a static bike slowly and a Cross trainer yes its been slow but my pain at nights has gone. My right knee is next hopefully end of the year. Dr Shibu Krishnan thank you and everybody at Chiltern Hospital.

Mr Krishnan has just carried out another very good knee replacement. He replaced my right knee joint in 2016 which has been very successful and he has just carried out the same procedure with my left knee.
His care and concern was exemplary. Explanation of the procedure was excellent and post operative care was outstanding.
I have no hesitation in recommending this consultant to anyone who is considering the same procedure.

After being diagnosed with advanced chronic osteoarthritis of my left knee, I received a left medial uni-condylar knee replacement under the care of Mr Shibu Krishnan at the BMI Chiltern Hospital. I am very pleased with the outcome; I was fully mobile within six weeks of the operation, and cannot speak highly enough of Mr Krishnan and his team, also the nursing and physiotherapy staff at the Chiltern Hospital.

I was assigned to Mr. Krishnan not knowing anything about him. The first consultation he explained just what a total hip replacement would entail. He did his hardest to get my operation done ASP as he knew I was house bound and hadn’t been able to walk much for 18 months. Within a month I found I could walk unaided! I just wish I had been put forward for this hip replacement a year earlier.

I found this doctor to be thoroughly trustworthy, my hip replacement is spot on perfect and after only six weeks i am able to do things very well.The operation was a straight forward no nonsense job, and i had a lovely meal afterwards,as this doctor takes care before the operation as well.
