Since I first met Mr Chandrasenan in 2017, I have received exemplary, impeccable care from him and all his co-workers at Chesterfield Royal Hospital. It is clear to even a patient with zero clinical knowledge that his technical expertise and his skills with people are exceptional. (I quote another doctor in his team who said, when I expressed an anxiety about how ill I was, ‘If you’re one of his patients, you will be very well looked after.’ And it is clear from the way his co-workers at all levels speak of him, and observed interactions between them, that his manner is pleasingly un-hierarchical.) At all times I have been listened to with patience and respect, and felt fully consulted about the care I was to receive and expected outcomes. At no time did I feel that expected outcomes were lowered because I am an older patient. All my questions were answered as fully as I could hope. At least twice Mr Chandrasenan asked me what I would like him to do, including fixing a convenient date for elective surgery. I had an easy ride with a first hip replacement, the second, recent one, not so. Given that I was so unlucky, and whilst I wish I hadn’t needed so much care, my experience was 100% positive in outpatients and on Hasland ward. Only once in about ten outpatient appointments did I wait more than ten minutes. I twice attended without a prior appointment and was promptly seen. On a day when Mr Chandresenan was not there, I saw another consultant within fifteen minutes. The second time I walked in with no prior contact and Mr Chandrasenan left a ward round to see me. I am now well and my positive experience, both technically and in the kindness of all staff, has left me even more motivated to recover full fitness as soon as possible. I am mindful of the cost and quantity of ressources I used. Whilst I hope to never need hospital treatment again, I would travel to be cared for by the same team. I know how much pressure NHS staff are under, yet I could not have had better care in any private facility. I have friends who live in other areas who have spent large sums of their savings because they could not be offered such good NHS care. I have nothing but praise and thanks for CRHT and its staff what ever their roles.

Dr Jeevan was thorough with explaining to me the damages of my knee and what that means to me for the future. He provided me with options and consulted me on what I wanted to do, what types of physical activity I enjoyed doing and would love to continue in my best interest. He explained to me in detail of the process for surgical intervention and phased stages for post-op recovery. He’s confident, well prepared and cheerful in all our interactions which’s given me 100% trust in his professionalism and expertise in providing me with the very best clinical care possible. I wasn’t sure whether I should have my knee treated in a private hospital in Sheffield before I was received by Dr Jeevan. After my first face to face consultation with Dr Jeevan, I was so extremely happy and 100% certain to have my treatment in the Royal Hospital by Dr Jeevan as he really gave me the confidence to trust my knee and future capabilities in his hands, and he delivered 100% as planned. Because of his excellent care for my knee, I was able to return work 2 months after the surgery and I’m now able to run and cycle again. I’d highly recommend Dr Jeevan to anyone with serious knee injuries similar to mine because he truly cares what’s in our best interests as his patients and he delivers what he says. Thank you Dr Jeevan.

After three or four years of struggling with my hip, I finally got a GP referral via my practice physio in June '23, I was given the choice of 10 possible local(ish) options for the referral. None could see me for at least 6 months, excepting a telephone consultation which turned out to be with Mr Chandrasenan. This was quickly arranged, when the day arrived I explained my pain level and felt very strongly that I was being listened to and understood. An in-person consultation was then arranged for early September, and once again I was listened to and he agreed that I did indeed require a total hip replacement. He was very happy to talk through details and answered all the questions I had without hesitation. A date for surgery was arranged for early December at Barlborough. Mr Chandrasenan came to see me on the ward, checked everything over and before long I'd been to theatre and was back on the ward, the proud owner of a prosthetic hip. I've been to have my post-op consultation today and again, Mr Chandrasenan was once again approachable, efficient, happy to answer questions and (coincidentally, almost!) very happy with the outcome of my surgery. I would have no hesitation whatsoever having my other hip operated upon by him when the time comes, nor any hesitation to recommend him to other orthopaedic patients. Keep up the excellent work, Mr C!
