After being accepted for a hip replacement I then had to wait a whole year before getting the operation. This of course was no fault of the doctor or surgeon. By the end of the year I literally could not walk more than a hundred yards without being in total agony. The operation was a complete success and I have zero pain now and can walk several miles without a problem. There is a six week to two month period after the operation (depending on your age and fitness) when you have to recover from the after effects of the operation (swollen leg and hip), and walk with the aid of crutches and then sticks, but beyond that my experience was a pain free life, back to normality. Fantastic work.

A young consultant with modern views and up to date training. He went out of his way to do my operation in time to allow me to do my fund raising for the British Legion. My operation went to plan and my recovery was swift. My District nurse on checking my wound after two weeks said that it was the neatest, cleanset wound she had ever seen! After my operation the check ups were dealt with by registrars who were good but I would have appreciated seeing my consultant just once, however he did sign me off on my 12month check so I was able to thank him. I am very grateful for the pain relief this operation has provided.

I was totally unprepared for the wonderful service I received from Mr Shahid and his team due to all the adverse report about Worcester Royal. Having fallen when walking my dog my wrist was broken so when I went to the trauma clinic I was just expecting to have a plaster cast fitted, wrong, I was told surgery was needed to fit a plate and it was going to be done that day. Shock horror could not believe it, yes I had to wait for a bed to be found but found it was and the surgery was performed that very afternoon and I went home the next day. After about two weeks went for a follow up appointment, more x-rays and stitches removed, operation successful and now in a splint for about six week and going to have phisio. My husband and I where due to go on holiday a couple of weeks after the accident so we had to cancel and Mr Shahid has already sent me a letter to give to our insurance. So I am on the road to recovery all thanks to Mr Shadid and his team and I cannot thank them enough for the speed and kindness they have all shown me. All I have heard from the media is how bad Worcestershire Royal is performing but my experience has been the total opposite. Once again thank you so much and keep up all the good work Mr Shadid and your team are doing.

Profile

Mr Mohammad Shahid was born in Birmingham and qualified from St Bartholomew's and The Royal London School of Medicine and Dentistry (University of London) in 2004, where he was awarded the Wheelwrights Prize in Paediatrics.

During this time he also attended Guy’s, Kings and St Thomas’s Medical School in London and did an intercalated BSc in Anatomy. In his final year he was awarded a scholarship to participate in an exchange program at Columbia University in New York.

Mr Shahid did his basic surgical training at UCLH, The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital in London. During this time he obtained the MRCS exam. His higher surgical training was on the prestigious Birmingham Orthopaedic Training Programme which included the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital. He successfully passed the Fellowship of the Royal Colleges of Surgeons (FRCS) exam for Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery on his first attempt. Shortly afterwards he was admitted to the General Medical Council Specialist Register as an Orthopaedic Specialist.

Mr Shahid's fellowship training was at the prestigious arthroplasty unit in Nottingham City Hospital under the auspices of Andrew Manktelow and Peter James, where he learnt how to manage complex hip and knee problems. He also did a travelling fellowship at the Exeter Hip Unit. He then moved to Toronto, Canada to take up a place at St Michael's Hospital under the supervision of Professor James Waddell, (former president of the Canadian Orthopaedic Association), concentrating on complex problems involving the hip and knee.

He returned to the UK to take up his consultant post at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust. Whilst there he had set up the Worcestershire Arthroplasty meeting whereby complex cases are discussed with fellow specialists to ensure all patients receive the best possible outcomes.
He also practises at Spire South Bank Hospital in Worcester and The BMI in Droitwich.

During his training he published a Physiology Textbook for medical students, numerous book chapters and over 20 scientific papers. Most recently he has contributed chapters to book offering a virtual fellowship in hip surgery. Mr Shahid has presented his work nationally and internationally and won numerous prizes. Furthermore, his research has secured grants, with the most recent being from the Royal Centre for Defence Medicine (RCDM).

Mr Shahid has been an honorary lecturer for Birmingham and Toronto Universities. He is a surgical advisory member of Beyond Compliance which monitors the early performance of new or modified implants.
