Mr Batra performed a total hip replacement on my right side, the operation was a great success, the consultation and pre op explanation was very good and easy to understand and post op consultations have gone well.

I saw Mr Batra for the first time in February 2018 at Salford Royal Hospital with severe arthritic pain in my left hip when he offered me a hip replacement at Trafford General Hospital. The surgery was carried out at Trafford General in May. He came to visit me several times at Trafford General. I was treated by him with dignity, politeness, utmost care; extensive knowledge & professionalism which also applied on my outpatient 6 monthly follow up appointment on 26/11/2018. I informed Mr Batra about being informed by Salford Royal's Age UK after Care Service that I was not entitled to their service as I had my surgery at Trafford General. I had to summon help from Healthwatch Salford who Intervened on my behalf. This problem should be addressed before older & more vulnerable who live alone as I do could die. I thank Mr Batra for his understanding & support when I brought this to his attention. Apart from this, I've always had outstanding care form Salford Royal - an outshining example to the NHS. I hope this problem will be addressed before it is too late. I know that it has happened to other people since my experience.

Cannot fault Mr Batra, he was incredibly supportive, professional, caring and I felt that I received a real personal service. The consultancy appointments were efficient and my survey was effective. I cannot thank Mr Batra enough for the care he gave, it was and is greatly appreciated
Best Regards

I had a hip replacement in May this year at Trafford General and I have been very happy with the care and attention I have received from Mr Bates, his team and the physio assistant. The main help comes from listening to the advice and acting on it. I have great faith in any future possible health related operation I may need.
