Mr James Gibbs

Written by a private patient at Nuffield Hospital Haywards Heath

I had a total knee replacement carried out by James Gibbs in late January. He had diagnosed the necessity for this (osteoarthritis) and explained the procedure thoroughly at the initial consultation. He was very clear about how painful it would be for the first few weeks after the operation, but reassuring that it would all be worth it eventually! Mr Gibbs is very professional, yet totally approachable, and always appears to have time to explain things thoroughly and answer any questions. I had inbuilt faith in Mr Gibbs as he had already replaced my hip two years ago. This faith was totally justified - my hip is now great and my new knee is recovering well and getting stronger each day. If, Heaven forbid, I were to need any further similar surgery to other joints, I would, without hesitation return to James Gibbs to carry out the operation.

Dr Gibb was cool as a cucumber, that really helped me relax as I am a full wimp when it comes to anything medical. I had an ACL reconstruction and two meniscus repairs, 11 weeks post Op yesterday - I have full flexibility back in my knee and I am back in gym doing light work & weights. I will start light jogging and cycling in 2 weeks. My knee looks great and it has healed nicely. Dr Gibb was brilliant from first consultation to the follows up post surgery. I highly recommend Dr Gibb.

I had partial knee replacements on both knees in January 2022. My experience from my first consultation to my final review at 6 weeks has been superb. Mr Gibbs was professional, reassuring & informative throughout. I’m delighted to be pain & limp free & am looking forward now to many happy years of walking, cycling etc. I cannot thank him & the whole team enough!

Mr Gibbs not only fixed with pins and a plate my broken femur, he later carried out revision work on a total knee replacement which I had mentioned to him has been painful since I had the operation four years ago. After an examination Mr Gibbs suggested he could carry out resurfacing my patella, which should ease my pain. This operation was carried out just before Christmas and although I obviously had some discomfort from the wound within two weeks I found I could walk without constant pain, even manage stairs without the use of my stairlift. I cannot thank him enough for the pain relief he has given me, together with such a warm, confident and assuring manner. I trust him enough to have my other knee replacement surgery to be carried out by him in March.
