My name is Stellla Nolan. I had a bad fall at home on 26th July, 2023. I was admitted to Whipps Cross Hospital under Orthopaedics with a left proximal Humeral fracture. Other than bed rest no action was taken, the theory being that left to itself my injury would eventually heal. It was almost 6 weeks later that I had the very good fortune to be seen by Mr Wisam Al-Hakim in Trauma Orthopaedics. The meeting turned my life around. I was in a very bad place both physically and psychologically. Feeling that I had been abandoned! I was in a great deal of pain, unable to do the things or live my life the way I had prior to my accident. Mr Al-Hakim is not in anyway ageist, he saw me as the person I am, a person anxious to return to the full and active life I had previously enjoyed. There was also concern that much time had elapsed since I’d had my accident. I saw Mr Al-Hakim on 31st August, I was admitted to Whipps Cross Hospital on 4th September, where I underwent a Left Reverse Shoulder Replacement. The operation was a great success, I cannot thank Mr Al-Hakim enough. It is a testament to his great skill and professional ability that I am again able to lead a full and happy life. Thank you!
