Mr M. Bilal M Barkatali

Written by a patient at Oaklands Hospital

I had a total hip replacement in July 2019 at Oaklands Hospital on the NHS. At my initial consultation, Mr Barkatali explained the procedure to me, in a clear, concise and reassuring way. He saw me pre op, instilling total confidence in me as I was understandable nervous undergoing an operation! He came to see me post op and reassured me that the operation had been a total success. I was in Oaklands for 2 nights after the operation and the staff, nurses and physios couldn't of been more caring and professional. On discharge I had 2 weekly visits to the Oaklands physiotherapy department who were excellent - extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the recovery process. I would say to anyone undergoing a total hip replacement to follow the physio as instructed and continue to do the daily exercises after they discharge you, to continue to build up strength and flexibility. I am now more than capable of going on a 3 mile walk unaided with no discomfort 10 weeks after surgery. I can't thank Mr Barkatali and the physios enough for the care they have taken of me.

Met Mr Barkatali for my pre op consultation for a total hip replacement in May 2019 and was immediately impressed by his assured manner.He explained the procedure in a concise and easily understood way and I was actually looking forward to the operation after months of hip pain. I had my operation in July 2019 at Oakland’s on the NHS.Mr Barkatali came to see me pre and post op,once again placing me at total ease and latterly informing me it had been a total success. After short stay in Oakland’s where I found all the nurses and doctors to be so sociable and professional,l was discharged and allowed to go home and begin my rehabilitation with fottnightly visits to the physios who skilfully guided me through recovery It’s now eight weeks post op and I’m back walking unaided with no pain.l can not thank Mr Barkatali and all the staff enough for what they have done for me and recommend them highly

Just Had my left Knee "repaired" and I cannot recommend Dr Barkatali enough, he listened to my concerns and fitted me In for the operation within a very tight timescale I imposed on him ( I was due to leave for a Cycling Holiday within 5 Weeks of my operation) I recovered in time to leave on the planned date and my Knee performed it's duties admirably :) Excellent service, expertly performed Thanks Karl Moss

Just over a year ago Mr Barkatali gave me two new hips and a knee arthroscopy . I am now leading a great new life. Mr Barkatali is the very best orthopedic surgeon in the world.
