I wished for 'great care' and that's exactly what, I'm very pleased to say, I received from Mr Unnithan and his team. As a trauma patient I did not have the advantage of preparing for my Total Hip Replacement but Mr Unnithan with empathy and compassion clearly explained my treatment options. Although I was in a great deal of pain I recall the caring and professional way he answered questions regarding my situation and his prognosis which significantly enhanced my confidence in him. I also appreciated the relaxed way he entered into some banter with me which eased my discomfort and concerns. I'm 70 and was determined to make every effort to recover quickly by keeping ahead of the 'recovery curve' and six weeks to the day of my operation Mr Unnithan was pleased to 'sign me off', his exceptional care was paramount. I still have fair way to go to achieve a full recovery and it was helpful of Mr Unnithan to offer me an open appointment to contact him within six months should I feel the need to do so. If you are reading this as part of research into a Total Hip Replacement I can only say that in the unfortunate event I need another Replacement I sincerely hope Mr Unnithan is available to do it. Finally, I would urge you to diligently undertake the recovery exercises which are also key to a successful outcome.
