I visited Mr Vemulapalli to discuss a possible bunion operation. He was extremely attentive and thorough in examination and following an X ray gave very open honest advice as to my various options. I have decided on the basis of his frank advice not to proceed with an operation but if for any reason in future I do require an operation in future then I will definitely be requesting Mr Vemulapalli.

Mr Vermulapalli was excellent from the first consultation until the last.
He explained the problem and gave me the options and prior to my operation he asked me to see a vascular surgeon ,just to make sure that the blood flow to my ankle was ok.
The operation went well and my initial recovery was just one night in hospital ,when I was expecting 3 nights .He advised me what to do and what not to do to aid recovery ,
and I saw him at regular intervals ,post operation to make sure everything was going well. My booked appointments post operation were always on time and he clearly explained my progress and answered any questions that I had .I have made a pretty good recovery so far and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Mr V operated on my foot in April. He explained everything to me and listened to my concerns. He told me how long things would take and 19 weeks on, I am where he said I would be via my recovery.

Prior to surgery I was fully informed on the outcomes and what to expect regarding recovery period. I had surgery on both feet and the results are amazing and worth the pain and time.
