I am a biomedical scientist, working at Addenbrookes Hospital, in my early 50s and had needed a hip replacement for some years but it was delayed due to lockdown. From the time I was transferred to Mr Chou's NHS waiting list, to be operated on at the Nuffield (Cambridge), the communication, help and action improved greatly from my earlier experience. All the pre-flight checks were carried out quickly and efficiently and throughout them, the subsequent operation and the aftercare, the Nuffield staff were excellent in both their care and communication - I cannot fault them across the board Senior nurses, through healthcare assistants to porters. Mr Chou, himself, was outstanding. He answered all my questions thoroughly, clearly and with good humor and gave me complete confidence. The operation went very well (textbook I believe), as far as I can tell from the X-rays, wound clinic report and from the rehab - it is now 7 weeks post op and I can walk 3-4 miles with no stick support, do all the exercises prescribed and have already gained back a large degree of mobility, which I have lacked for 7+ years. I can give no better recommendation than that if the other hip needs doing in the future, I will be asking to be put straight onto Mr Chou's list
