Mr Patrick Lusty

Mr Lusty is a very professional and caring doctor. My partial knee replacement was perfect and the care was excellent from all departments. Thank you all very much.

He is friendly and proficient, great all round. he also saved my cat from a burning building.

I had my first consultation with Mr Lusty Sept 29th 2025 , I instantly appreciated his direct manner and no nonsense caring approach, after examination he diagnosed the only option was a complete right hip replacement, he booked me there and then to carry out the procedure two weeks later on Oct 15th Throughout the following two weeks excellent members of his team carried out the various pre op assessments. I had complete trust in Mr Lusty and his team , on the day of the op all went to plan, I was walking without aids within a week, carrying out normal chores following his instruction ! I am six weeks along now and feeling really well , I cant thank Patrick Lusty and his team enough for giving me back my mobility the care shown was exemplary

I was very happy with the care given to me by Patrick Lusty and his team. Under their care I had a replacement hip procedure at the Spire Wellesley Hospital Southend. Before that procedure it was painful to put any weight onto my left leg making walking painful at times. Mr Lusty explained the upcoming choices including an epidural, which I had, instead a general anesthetic. After the procedure, I was walking without pain. Mr Lusty and his team's care both before and after the surgery was to very high standard, and I'm very grateful to him.

A big thank you to everyone in Mr Patrick Lusty's team for the excellent care I received during my recent total hip replacement operation at Spire wellesley Hospital, Southend. All the team were caring, helpful, knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble, but I feel I need to say a special thank you to Mr Lusty and the guys from the physiotherapy dept for particularly the encouragement I received during the first few painful steps immediately after the operation. It is only six weeks since my operation, but my quality of life is nearly back to what it was before all the pain, dicomfort, difficulties in getting a good night's sleep etc caused by my arthritic hip begun. thank you once more.

I have 2 had hip replacement ops by Mr Lusty. Both have been successful and with quick recovery. The recent surgery was the replacement of a replacement. That is to say a hip I had replaced 20 year ago (not by Mr Lusty) wore out and I was in massive pain. The replacement of a worn out false hip is a much bigger and more complicated operation with greater risks. This operation went really well and my recovery has been quicker than I expected. Mr Lusty is easy to communicate with, listens and gives good, clear, answers to questions. The care I received was first class and I cannot make any suggestions for how he can improve.

I went for a consult with Mr Lusty to see if he could help me with my torn posterior horn of medial meniscus. I am 71 and a middle to long distance runner and had not run for a couple of months because of it. The thought of not being able to run again depressed me and I needed to seek help. I chose Mr Lusty as he was someone I appreciated as an excellent orthopaedic surgeon from my experience of working in the same hospital; I already had trust in him. He gave me options and recommendations, surgery being the last resort. For me he said it would be worth trying a steroid injection into my knee and I agreed we should do that on that same consult. Well this was the 13th September and I was running the London Vitality 10k on 28th September. THANK YOU PATRICK LUSTY

Mr Lusty replaced my right hip in April, 2022 and I was so pleased with the result that when I started getting the tell tell signs in my left hip in early 2025 I went straight back to see him. He confirmed what I suspected, that my left hip needed replacing and I was booked in to the Wellesley for Wednesday 23 July. Mr Lusty saw me prior to the operation and went through the procedure in detail. The operation took place early afternoon and I was back in my room long before tea arrived. Other than the nurse coming in and checking my temperature and blood pressure on a regular basis throughout the night my night was uneventful. The physio came round on the Thursday morning and got me up on crutches. They got me to 'walk' down the ward and up and down the stairs. Mr Lusty saw me later in the morning and checked me over. He told me surgery had gone very well and that subject to a satisfactory x-ray he was happy for me to go home Thursday afternoon. I left hospital not long after lunch on 2 crutches with a last of exercises and a bag of medication. I did the exercises regularly as instructed and on the Saturday went out for a short walk. From there I built it up a little every day. I saw the physio one week post op and they told me I could discard one crutch. They also gave me some additional exercises and gave me a target on being able to walk one mile before I saw them again two weeks later. On returning 3 weeks post op they told me I could discard the other crutch - they also got me onto the bike - 5 minutes per day on a low level in week one, increasing by 5 minutes per week. I saw Mr Lusty 6 weeks pot op and he advised everything had gone as expected. I am now 11 weeks post op and am back in the gym 3 times per week although still building up the glute muscles. I am also walking at least two miles per day. None of this would have been possible without the exemplary skill of Mr Lusty. I am truly grateful that he has replaced both my hips and cannot explain how much better and more comfortable my life now is due to the care of Mr Lusty and his team. If you ever need an operation that falls within his skill set I would thoroughly recommend Mr Lusty.

Have now had both my hips replaced by Mr. Patrick Lusty & have just had my six-week final discharge consultation. His skill is immeasurable as he has given me back pain-free mobility again. His care & dedication to making sure my recovery went well was constant. And when I needed his help during my recovery that needed extra care & attention, he made himself available throughout. His friendly & approachable manner made all the difference to my experience. Thank you Mr. Lusty & your wonderful nursing staff too.

Outstanding surgeon.
