As l am due to have an operation at Hillingdon this month, I realised that I had not written to you previously with regard to a Total Hip Replacement that I had. I found that the staff, both medical and administrative, was most helpful and cheerful at a time when you need all the help you can get. But the "Star of the Show" for me and my wife was Mr Somashekar. He is such a kind caring gentleman and a first class surgeon and did all that was possible for my admittance. How he managed to make sure that my legs were then same length, i do not know, given that my right femur was 2inches shorter than the left due to the loss of the crown. was so impressed by the treatment that l received, that I asked Mr Somashekar if he could refer me to one of his colleagues for a collapsed foot that I have. This he did without fail, hence my admittance this month with great confidence, under Mr Zaw. It's such a pleasure to find an Hospital such as yours exists.

i met Mr Somshekar, the surgeon who was to perform my hip replacement operation in clinic. I found him to be very amiable, efficient and informative. He performed the procedure four days later, and from the moment I came round from the operation, there was no pain at all. A fantastic feeling after a year of suffering. The physiotherapist got me up the following day and I managed really well with elbow crutches. All six of us in the ward agreed that the care and attention we received was second to none. All the staff in Trinity Ward were attentive, efficient and every caring. I saw Mr Somashekar for a follow up appointment and again found him to be very informative and he showed me x rays before and after the operation, and also was able to show me on the computer screen how it was fitted. Such an excellent service. A big thank you to Mount Vernon Hospital and all the staff involved in my journey back to a panfry lifestyle.

My husband has been undergoing treatment at Hillingdon Hospital for a ruptured Quads muscle which he had nearly a year ago with Mr Somashekar taking care of him. This has included two surgeries and continued follow up care. We would like to commend Mr Somashekar for his care and attention to my husband during this period. He has always been extremely courteous in his manner, and has always been explained exactly what is happening in language that we can understand. Mr and Mrs AC
