Mr Patrick Lusty

Written by a private patient at Spire Wellesley Hospital

I wasn't surprised to be told that I needed a hip replacement. I had experienced a rapid decline in my range of movement and driving distances was becoming very uncomfortable. Having received my consultation with Mr Lusty it wasn't a difficult decision to go ahead and have him perform the operation. Everything was explained fully and despite never having had an operation since early childhood, I had every confidence in him. It also helped that several people that we spoke to, knew of or had been treated by Mr Lusty and none had anything but praise for him. The Physiotherapy team had me up on crutches the afternoon of the procedure. The following day I was up and down some stairs. Mr Lusty checked on me post operation and was very reassuring. The medication I was prescribed by him upon discharge kept me pain free. His skill as a surgeon meant that there were no stitches to be removed and the wound healed quickly with no problems. Now I am six weeks post-operation and I glad that I put my trust in him. I am pain and discomfort free, can walk a fair distance without walking aids and can look forward to resuming my life to the full. Thank you!

Mr Lusty carried out a left total knee replacement for me in January. He discussed this procedure thoroughly with me in clinic beforehand and I had complete confidence in his abilities, mostly due to his terrific reputation reputation in his field. The surgery went well, I saw him several times post operatively in hospital when he was encouraging and reassuring and at my six week checkup he discharged me as everything was going well. Before the surgery he stressed the importance of pre-and post-operative exercises and I believe this has also been an important factor in my recovery so far. I also appreciated the fact that he was very honest in advising that it is not the easiest of surgeries to deal with, which was reassuring in those early days when it certainly wasn’t much fun! He discharged me from hospital with what I expect was a tried and tested medication regime and I can honestly say this made the pain and discomfort very bearable. To be honest I can’t think of anything that could have been done by Mr Lusty to improve my care and I am very grateful to him for that fact. The nursing team at the Spire Wellesley were also kind and caring during my stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mr Lusty to anyone considering this surgery, I believe he has a tremendous gift which his patients are privileged to benefit from.
