I had both hips replaced using the 'superpath' total hip replacement by Mr Faisal; the first in Oct-21 and second hip in Dec-21. He and his team treated me with the utmost respect and care. The anaesthetist was also excellent and the team had my complete confidence. Following both hip replacements I was able to walk the same day. Six months on I have made a complete recovery and have gone from walking with a pronounced limp and discomfort to now playing active sports. I can't overstate how well the operation went and the difference it has made to my life. I have now been fully signed off following my post op consultation with Mr Faisal who I can't recommend highly enough - we are very lucky to have such skilled surgeons working in this country. I can wholeheartedly recommend Mr Faisal, his team and the superpath technique.

I had a SUPERPATH total hip replacement by Mr Faisal on 28 January 2022. He and his team treated me with the utmost respect, care and above all dignity at all times. I was very anxious on the day, and they were all so kind and caring to me, including the girls in theatre on that morning who put me totally at ease. The anesthetist was so nice and competent and I felt safe and secure. Mr Faisal came to see me as soon as I came round in the recovery room and reassured me that everything went well with the procedure. I walked on that day, and returned home the following afternoon. I am now four and a half weeks into my recovery - I can walk without any aid, I can drive my car, I can go back to the pool and I feel well on the way back to my old life. I have been attending physio at the Nuffield Gym in Rugby and have had great care from Dev who again has been very professional and patient. Mr Faisal saw me at four weeks post op and he spent a full 30 minutes with me, and I felt he had great patience and understanding. As there are no restrictions following this surgery, I was able to mobilise very quickly and would not hesitate to recommend Mr Faisal, his team and especially the SUPERPATH technique

After many years of constant pain which I though was back related, I was referred to Mr Faisal in February 2021. After a number of scans & x-rays at the BMI Meriden Hospital in Coventry he diagnosed arthritis in both my hips & recommended I had both replaced. I had the right surgery in April 2021 & within days was back on my feet & within 5 weeks out of pain, I had the left side surgery in October 2021, whilst recover has been slower I was back on my feet straight way & out of pain in 7 weeks. The surgery itself was excellent, Mr Faisal came to see me before he went into surgery, he was very good & explained the details of the surgery along with the anesthetic options. Admission was straight forward & I was discharged the following day. His bedside manner was excellent, I felt confident & reassured I was in god hands throughout & I would thoroughly recommend anyone needing hip or knee surgery to request his services.

After hip replacement I was back driving after 4 weeks and going to the gym. After 6 weeks I was walking 2 miles and cycling 3 miles and now gradually expanding these. I hope to get back to running after 8-9 months following Mr Faisal's advice. The operation has been a great success and Mr Faisal has been very helpful in telling me what I can do and cannot do in my recovery.

Excellent from every point of view. The communication from the administrators (Penny Globe) was exemplary. The diagnosis and explanation of the X-ray and ultrasound was clear and understandable. The operation itself was as good as I could have expected and Mr Faisal communicated what he found and did without delay. It is now just over two months since the procedure was carried out, and every5hing is going well; in fact better than I could have anticipated.

Profile

Mr Faisal qualified in 1992 from the prestigious Aligarh University in India. He then went on to complete his masters (MS) in Orthopaedics. He completed his UK training in the West Midlands, Sheffield and Warwick. He also did a one year fellowship in hip and knee arthroplasty in the UK and supplemented this with fellowships at world renowned lower limb reconstruction units at Mayo Clinic, USA and at Vancouver General Hospital, Canada.

Mr Faisal has extensive experience in primary and revision hip and knee replacement especially minimally invasive hip replacement, ceramic on ceramic and uncemented hip replacements.

Mr Faisal also performs hip replacements using the SUPERPATH technique which is a tissue sparing procedure allowing patients to get back their mobility quicker and walk unassisted the day after surgery and leave the hospital without the restrictions normally patients follow after total hip replacement. A SUPERPATH Hip replacement technique is designed to precisely reconstruct the hip without cutting muscles and tendons or stretching muscles that are important for hip function.

Mr Faisal also offers customised total knee replacement surgery using patient specific instruments to streamline total knee replacement surgery according to patients anatomy. The Zimmer Patient Specific Instruments Planner is the next generation in surgical planning. The surgeon can preoperatively view the patient’s anatomy in its purest geometrical form to develop a customised surgical plan for each patient.


Mr Faisal has been working as a Consultant in Lower Limb surgery at Warwick Hospital since 2008
