Mr Rishi Chana

Written by a patient at Ashford Hospital

It has now been 7 weeks since my full hip replacement for which I would like to thank Mr Chana and all the staff at Ashford hospital for there professional care. From the start of the process i.e. MRI, consultant, surgeon pre-op and nursing staff. I suffered very little pain and was up on feet in no time, as being self employed I was keen to start work again and playing golf which I did after 6 weeks.

I had a problem with my ankle for 2 years. I was in constant pain, albeit a dull ache. I saw Dr Chana after about a year or so of different consultants and he said that he wanted to try a few ideas first but thought that I could require surgery. I was sent for a PRP injection into the affected area and that seemed to work for about 6 weeks, then the pain came back. Dr. Chana then scheduled an operation date to remove the part of the heel that was giving me the pain. To do this he would have to cut through my achilies tendon. After the operation Dr Chana told me that he changed his mind during the operation and shaved the ankle bone without cutting the achilles. This meant a much faster recovery time and I could go home the same day. I have met with Dr. Chana twice since the op and can safely say that he has sorted it. I am back running and feel no pain in the ankle whatsoever. A huge thanks goes to Dr. Chana and his team. I was sceptical but it's all worked out!

This is the first time ever spent in hospital, I have been very fortunate to be quite a healthy person, unfortunately had an accident some time ago which left me with a problem in my left leg, tried to brave it out, but it finally caught up with me, After meeting Mr Chana, it came as a shock to find out that a Total Hip replacement was required, but his calm relaxing manner put me at ease as he explained the process to come. I was obviously a little apprehensive, however Mr Chana was very professional, and from the first consultation until my final meeting with him last night has been an amazingly good experience. I would like to thank all the staff at Princess Margaret Hospital who were friendly, courteous and very helpful during my short visit, and I would highly recommend treatment from Mr Chana to anyone, he is a total credit to his profession, a mere thank you did not seem enough, but that’s all I could do. Again many thanks Mr Chana for giving me a fresh lease of life

I was very nervous about having a hip arthroscopy however i was lucky enough to be under the care of Mr Chana. He is a consummate professional, not only with his professional expertise but also with his very calm cheery and reassuring manner. Mr Chana takes the time to explain every stage in such a way that even I can understand that gave me confidence going into and after surgery. I am now 5 months post surgery and feeling great and getting better with everyday. I would highly recommend Mr Chana to anyone who requires orthopaedic surgery and can't thank him and his team enough.

It is now twelve weeks since Mr Chana replaced my right hip. He and his theatre team did a wonderful job. The anaesthetist was helpful in her explanation over something which had worried me somewhat. Thank you. The staff on Dickens ward were well organised and very helpful and the physio team did their job well of getting us back on our feet. I have now completed my time with Stacia in the physio department and have been sent off with further exercises to help further strength improvement although it's already pretty good, a lot better than it has been for a long time. Thank you everyone for giving me the chance to be me again. It's great.
