Mr. Tai was very informative of the procedure to be undertaken and the risks involved, all questions answered in great detail to put my mind at complete rest. I had a total hip replacement after a few years of a lot of pain. The operation was a complete success, on the day of the operation it was a bit uncomfortable not a lot of pain, over the next two weeks the recovery was remarkable. I stopped using my crutches after two weeks and could walk unaided and without pain. This man is extremely gifted, I would recommend him to all family and friends.

Mr Tai was extremely helpful regarding my hip and what options I had. When I decided to have a hip replacement this was offered within 4 weeks. All the organisation through Ellis his PA was excellent. The hip operation went very well, and the outcome is 5 stars. There is a small scar, but it is now nearly seven weeks since the operation and I feel like a new person. The aftercare has been good, and I would recommend this package to people looking for a consultant and a hospital to have this done in.

After having my consultation with Mr Tai I came away very satisfied and ready for my surgery. He answered all my questions/queries clearly and detailed any risks involved with the surgery so that I had a clear knowledge of how my procedure would go. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of my surgery, it was a complete success. I have had no implications with my surgery and my wound has healed completely. The surgery I had was a total hip replacement.

Mr Tai was very helpful, listened to my problem, and carried out my replacement knee surgery in a kind and professional way. He and his team made a scary proposition less of an ordeal for me. Everything was explained clearly to me and the care I received was exemplary

Mr Tai was Friendly, knowledgeable & professional from the beginning. He has fixed both of my knees now (Torn cartilidges & clean up of lose debris in my knees which was causing pain and constant locking) I honestly cannot recommend him & his team enough- I felt totally safe & looked after from start to finish & the results speak for themselves. I am now mobile & pain free which has changed my life around. Thank you so much to the whole team & Mr Tai

Profile

I am an experienced Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, who specialises in adult hip and knee arthroplasty and the management of traumatic injuries. I consult privately at Pinehill Hospital in Hitchin, and One Hatfield Hospital.
Having studied medicine at St Mary's Hospital medical school, I underwent specialist training on the highly regarded Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore, Specialist Registrar rotation. I then continued my sub specialty training in adult hip and knee replacement surgery on the prestigious year-long fellowship with the Specialist Orthopaedic Group in Sydney, Australia. During this fellowship, I was trained in the latest arthroplasty techniques, including the direct anterior approach to the hip, computer navigated hip replacements and patient specific implants.
I have completed a second fellowship in complex trauma at University Hospital, Walsgrave - one of the busiest major trauma centres in the United Kingdom.
I have published a number of articles related to my areas of sub-specialty interest and I have written book chapters on traumatic injuries.
