Mr Nakhla performed a total knee replacement for me on April 12th. The whole experience has been brilliant with only a two day stay in hospital. I went home with two sticks but didn't need them in the house after the next day. The progress I made was remarkable and I am now pretty well back to normal. After a month I did my normal exercise class (slightly adapted). I've just had my six week check with Mr Nakhla and, as before, he was very friendly and had time to listen to what I had to say. He's done a fantastic job, far beyond my previous expectations, and I can't thank him enough. I totally recommend him to anyone.

Mr Nakhla is a brilliant surgeon. He is kind, caring, compassionate and very efficient. I had a total knee replacement at the amazing Shepton Mallet Treatment Centre. Mr Nakhla and his team were totally professional, very caring and I trusted them completely. I am not now afraid to have my other knee replaced later in the year. Thank you so much to you all for the wonderful care.

Mr Nakhla was cheerful, considerate, competent. He and his team put me at ease before my THR surgery and approached the aftercare and rehabilitation with positivity giving me the expectation that all would be well...this goes a long way. Thank you for a successful surgery.

Many thanks to Mr Nakhla for a very successful hip replacement, carried out by a friendly and informative surgeon, who together with his team put me at ease prior to surgery. The scar is very small and there was no bruising or pain in the hip. I was able to discard my crutches after a week and resume modified exercises at the gym from day 12, which I put down to the skill of this surgeon. The staff and quality of care at Shepton Mallet is first class.
