Re-assured before the operation, afterwards explained that a knee replacement is worse than a hip operation or slower recovery. Scar is quite small and I appreciated the butterfly stitches, less scaring and less pain.

The prospect of having a replacement hip was quite daunting, but Mr Nasr explained the procedure very carefully, answered all my questions and put my mind at rest. He made it clear that the decision was mine, and there was no pressure. Having suffered many months of pain and walking becoming impossible for more than 10 mins or so, I made the decision to go ahead with the operation. Mr Nasr and his team put me completely at my ease in the operating theatre and the whole procedure was over and done with in what seemed a very short time. I found Mr Nasr’s informal and easy manner helped enormously. Having to wear masks because of the Covid pandemic he thoughtfully wore a surgeon’s hat with his name on so that we knew it was him when he visited before the operation! 7 weeks on from my operation I am walking about pain free , climbing stairs and generally getting on with life. A wonderful sense of freedom. I may well have to have another replacement hip before too long and I would be more than happy to be a patient of Mr Nasr again. I owe him a big thank you.

I have suffered with osteo-artheritis in both knees for twenty years and had reached pain levels that affected every aspect of my life, including hardly being able to walk. I researched the consultants/surgeons that I could and Mr Nasr stood out for his experience and capabilities. When I had my first full knee replacement operation Mr Nasr found significant wear that required some reconstruction before the new knee could be fitted. My knee after seven weeks is fantastic. I can walk and move with only marginal pain from the operation that will recede shortly. I can only thank Mr Nasr for his skill and thoughtfulness during the entire process. Despite trepidation before the first operation I am looking forward to the second knee replacement operation due some time next year.

I had a total hip replacement operation which was very successful. I cannot praise Dr Nasr enough for his professionalism and skill. My quality of life is greatly improved. I would also like to thank his support staff and physio department for their excellent aftercare.

From the outset Mr Nasr provided complete and detailed information regarding the total knee replacement process. I always felt confident I understood the risks and reward from undergoing the procedure because of the attention to detail provided by Mr Nasr. Before during and after the procedure I was kept fully informed of progress and always felt my best interested were being cared for. I am totally satisfied with the outcome to date (6 weeks on) as my mobility has improved considerably and the pain I.used to suffer has completely disappeared.
