I would like to share my experience of having a total hip replacement by Mr. Andrew Carrothers, consultant orthopaedic specialist. My treatment and care by Mr. Carrothers and his team has been excellent throughout. During my first consultation the procedure, using Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery, was fully explained to myself and my husband by Mr. Carrothers, this would be performed under a spinal anaesthetic by Dr. Maroof. We were confident and agreed to go ahead. The pre assessment, blood tests etc, CT Scan, were arranged prior to surgery. I was admitted to hospital on the morning of my surgery and seen by Mr. Carrothers and Dr. Maroof and of course the nurses in preparation. Everything went very well and my progress was monitored well by Mr. Carrothers, nurses and physiotherapists. I was discharged home with adequate analgesia and other medication, crutches and appointments for the wound dressing clinic, physiotherapy and a six week meeting with Mr. Carrothers. My progress has been very good, it is six weeks since surgery and l am well on the way to recovery. Thank you so much to Mr. Carrothers and his team.
