Reviews
Having had hip probs. for a long time, I was seen by Mr.Chatenya-Chauhan in clinic and immediately he made me feel at ease. His manner and concern made feel that I was his only patient. He explained the alternative procedures, to which I replied that I did not wish to go down the hip replacement route, due to my age. I was taken aback when Mr. C.agreed, then he went on to explain the procedure he proposed. This involved the drilling into the hip and inserting a gel to the area that was starved of any fluid. This was explained to me in a very simple form, yet thorough. I found Mr.Chatenya -Chauhan a truly great guy and I was not daunted in any way to attend the day stay at Southend Hospital. SORRY I almost forgot the outcome is absolutely FINE !!! Thanks again Mr. C.
Mr Chauhan listened to all I had to say , and explained in detail the pro and cons of my ailments and ways forward , I have never had so much trust in a doctor/ surgeon before as I do with mr Chauhan , what’s more I would travel great distances to receive treatments from him ,
my experience was 100% positive he explained all about the surgery if i decided to have it and then suggested that loosing some weight would help and also daily exercise would benefit i took on board what Mr Chauhan suggested and when i next saw him told him that i had lost 1.1/2 stone which benefited me greatly the pain and discomfort in my knee was greatly improved - Mr Chauhan is a very very lovely man he is also an absolute gentleman he listens to what you have to say and tries to give you a positive attitude i am grateful for his time and experience thank you also his nursing staff are absolutely brilliant so thank you to.
Thank you so much for your professional and kind care regarding my carpel tunnel surgery. A great Doctor who has performed a wonderful piece of surgery. Thank you!
I first met Mr Chauhan in May 2021 with a view to injections in my arthritic knee, an MRI was recommended and Mr Chauhan said a full knee replacement was needed. Due to other commitments this was then arranged for 12th January 2022. The operation was a complete success and six weeks on I am 75% back to normal walking without aid and climbing stairs normally. And best of all pain free! I had the greatest confidence in Mr Chauhan from the first time of meeting and the care he gives and attentiveness to his patients is second to none. His team are first rate and made me feel totally at ease in the theatre and the physio at the London Independent has got me back on my feet sooner than I expected. I cant thank him enough and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs knee surgery.
