I am exceptionally lucky to not only live in a country where health care is free at the point of need but also to have this fantastic surgeon at my local hospital! Jeevan has been my consultant for a few years now and following arthroscopies, physio and injections- he carried out a Partial knee replacement on my R knee in July 2017. The procedure went unbelievably well but more important than this was his genuine care. He listened, empathised and took all the necessary action at his disposal to end my on going pain. Fast forward 23 months and today, I have been given a date for a total knee replacement on my L knee. Once again, Jeevan explained the procedure fully, reminding me that the recovery this time will be harder due to it be a TKR. I want to state that even if the greatest orthopaedic knee surgeon from Harley Street came and offered to do this procedure for me within 48 hours, I would not give consent. This man is my hero, a humble man who probably doesn’t realise what he has done for me already and continues to do so. He is quite simply- the light at the end of a dark, painful tunnel. He is a credit to all who have played their part in giving no the people of NE Derbyshire an “outstanding” orthopaedic surgeon!
