Mr Shibu Krishnan

Five years ago, next month, Mr Krishnan replaced my right hip joint - I was suffering from severe arthritis. It was funded by the NHS and done in Wycombe hospital. It was transformative and I was able to go back to playing football with my grand children. At the time Mr Krishnan told me the other hip would need doing and he said "I'll see you within five years". Sure enough, by 2019 I became aware of deterioration and discomfort in the left hip. By the end of 2020 it was severe. given how good the first procedure had been. I contacted Mr Krishnan at the beginning of this year and arranged for the necessary surgical procedure to be done at the BMI Chiltern in March. The whole process was brilliant and transformative. Its still only 6 weeks ago, but I am very satisfied. Mr Krishnan is in my view a great surgeon; he listens and explains everything, nothing is too much trouble.

I was fortunate in that Mr Krishnan agreed to give me surgery for a hip replacement and was greatly impressed by his professional approach , skill and efficiency. All went well, and I feel 100% better after the surgery. I cannot praise Mr Krishnan enough. His dedication and skill changed my life for the better. The after care I received was excellent and his dedication to his patients could not be bettered.

This Operation was to repair my knee joint and I was fortunate to have Mr Shibu Krishnan as the Surgeon to carry out this operation. This was my first ever Operation that I have ever had in my life and from the very first Consultation that I had with Mr Krishnan, he explained what he was going to do with the repair of my knee and totally reassured myself on all aspects of the operation. Mr Krishnan came to see me prior to the operation and again afterwards to reassure and to confirm that all had gone well. Since the operation, Mr Krishnan has periodically been in touch but it was difficult with the Virus Situation, however we had our final face to face meeting (with X-Rays being taken) and Mr Shibu Krishnan was pleased with the repair of my knee and signed me off. There is nothing to improve anything and full praise and thanks to Mr Krishnan.

MR Krishnan completed a total hip replacement for me in July. He was very caring and answered all my questions before and after the op. I am immensely grateful for his skill in giving me my mobility back and I am enjoying life to the full very soon after the procedure. Excellent care also from all the staff at the hospital . Very many thanks from a very grateful patient. Mike Russell

I felt Mr Krishnan did an excellent job for me and i am very grateful

A Truly skilled and accomplished surgeon who is also kind honest and caring . The operation was life changing and such a swift recovery . Unbelievable. I cannot praise him enough . Thank you so much I would recommend this surgeon 110%.

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.
