Share review of Mr Rohit Gupta, BSc(Hons) MBBS(Lond) FRCS(Eng) FRCS(Tr&Orth)
After a mountain bike accident in October 2016, I saw Mr Gupta.
After a scan, he identified I had torn 95% of my rotator cuff and I had also torn my posterior labrum.
Due to work commitments, I was not able to have the operation until mid-December.
Mr Gupta repaired both my posterior labrum and rotator cuff with keyhole surgery.
I was in hospital overnight but discharged the following lunchtime.
I was given a large wedge to wear 24hrs a day to support my arm and physio to complete at home.
I iced the repair and did the physio as recommended and wore the wedge for a month.
During the consultation process, I was informed that I should be prepared not to be back on my bike for at least six months.
However due to Mr Gupta's fantastic keyhole surgery and care I was able to get back onto my mountain bike just three months after the surgery.
After four months I rode for four days on some of the toughest trails in The Lake District - a testament to Mr Gupta's repair!
Thank you!
