It was great that the Consultant Mr Tai visited me after the op to check that all was well.

I underwent a total hip replacement at the end of November under Dr Tai's care. Dr Tai was recommended to me as I was fed up with seeing doctors who did not listen and spoke at me or over me. I had many appointments with Dr Tai I always felt that he listened and gave me very clear concise answers to my many questions that I found easy to understand with no medical jargon. I am happy with the outcome of my operation.

Mr Tai recently completed a knee replacement on my right leg. I was impressed by the speed with which things took place following my decision to move forward . Mr Tai was very clear on what to expect and how things would progress. I have been very pleased with the results - and am looking forward to getting back onto the fairways

From initial consultation to surgery I’ve been impressed by Mr Tai and his team. At 48 I wasn’t expecting to need a hip replacement but Mr Tai guided me through the options with a factual non biased approach providing all the facts in order to make an informed decision. 6 weeks later I feel fantastic, neat scar with no swelling or bruising experienced, I now feel rejuvenated and probably hadn’t realised how much the pain had previously effected my physical and mental health. I’m grateful to Mr Tai and his team and would recommends this gifted surgeon to anybody requiring expert care.

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.
