Mr Muthu Ganapathi

Written by a private patient at Spire Yale Hospital

I was in severe pain until my hip replacement surgery, I am now out of pain,and able to get back to my normal activities. Everything was explained clearly to me about the procedure and possible side effects, so I am in a much better condition today.

From my initial meeting with Mr Ganapathi I felt that I was in the hands of an experienced professional. He listened attentatively about my symptoms, and also concerns I had about future actions to be taken. Mr Ganapathi suggested I watched some Youtube videos produced by Ysbyty Gwynedd guiding patients through the whole process of hip replacement, which I found extremely helpful. I was given time to consider my options, and once my decision was made, I contacted Mr Ganapathi's secretary, and was quickly thereafter informed about the precise cost of the treatment and all necessary information going forward. The next time I saw Mr. Ganapathi was the day of my operation. I was feeling very anxious, therefor, it was very good to see him in my room before the operation looking calm and quietly confident. The operation went well, and once again it was reassuring to see Mr Ganapathi at the end of the afternoon, checking to see that I was recovering. Since then my recovery has gone very well indeed, and at my final meeting with Mr Ganapathi, five weeks on, I could report that I was walking without crutches around the house, and used only one crutch outdoors. I was shown the original x-ray taken of my hip, and the new hip after the operation, and Mr. Ganapathi explained about the component parts and construction, which was interesting and helpful. I have been trying to think of something I could suggest to improve the caring service I received, but nothing comes to mind. My experience of hip replacement with Mr Ganapathi was excellent, and I will not hesitate to recommend his work to anyone needing orthopaedic surgery.

Mr. Ganapathi has, over a period of twelve years replaced both my hips and, most recently, my left knee as a result of severe osteoarthritis. All the operations have been entirely successful and as a result I am now able to walk well and continue to rebuild muscle bulk and strength, following recommendations from him and associated physiotherapists. Mr. Ganapathi has throughout kept me very well informed about the needs and risks of each operation, most particularly the recent knee replacement which used robotic guidance. This enabled him not only to replace the damaged joint but also to straighten my left leg, making walking easier and less stressful. His approach throughout has been friendly and professional, reducing stress and apprehension as to the outcome of the operations (there wasn't much), and emphasising the need for continued effort on my part to facilitate healing and correct function of the replaced joints; a process which is ongoing. He and his team have my deep gratitude for their skill, expertise and commitment to their very valuable work.

I have been very lucky to have been a patient of Mr Ganapathi and he was responsible for replacing 2 knees and 2 hips. I consider him to be an excellent surgeon and have great faith in him. He explained the whole procedure and put my mind at rest.
