Dr Vemulapalli was very helpful and listened to our concerns, he made my daughter feel at ease. Dr Vemulapalli recommended an ultra sound in order to make sure everything was ok, he was very thorough.
I am very pleased with how professional he is.

I have been attending Queen's Hospital Outpatients Clinic 1 since April 2014, for my ongoing complex foot condition.
Mr Vemulapalli has an excellent manner, takes time to explain your condition. Makes you feel very confident in his treatment. How ever long treatment may take.
He has a passion about orthopedics & wants the best care & treatment for his patients.
I wish all Doctors/Consultants were like him.

I first meet Mr V when I was suffering with a crippling ankle injury. He was so kind and honest. He was a true gentleman who told me exactly what he could do to help me and what was realistic. He has always given me excellent treatment and I feel total confidence in him. He gently encouraged me stop smoking for good following surgery. If your attending his NHS clinic expect a delay as Mr V insists on seeing all the patients himself and reviewing all the treatments thus ensuring everyone receives the same exceptionally high standard. Believe me Mr V is a fantastic surgeon and your be lucky to see someone with his expertise & knowledge.
So when my knee started being painful I had no hesitation in requesting a referral to Mr Vemulapalli. I know I will receive the very best charming care.

I injured my ankle and was referred to Mr V for treatment. His knowledge was excellent. His care was second to none. I'd highly recommend him to anyone especially those requiring foot/ankle treatment.
