I had a complex total left knee replacement in March 2024 as an NHS patient at Little Aston Hospital. Prior to surgery I had special X-rays to give Mr Hossain the best information about my knee and posture. Having had treatment for ‘knock knees’ as a baby and the joint being effected by rheumatoid arthritis made it “complex”. The joint bled a lot during surgery and immediately post operatively but all was good despite a grossly swollen leg from groin to toes and unfounded fear of a DVT. Four months on and I am delighted with my knee which feels strong and secure. Mr Hossain could not have been more caring and considerate had I been a private patient and he was quick to organise a scan to exclude a DVT when the NHS was slow to do so. I will have a final X-ray and appointment in December when I anticipate discharge from his care. I consider myself so lucky to have been placed on this surgeon’s list as I had no prior knowledge of his expertise and if I had used my savings for this surgery I could not have done better. If you want empathy, attention to detail, expertise, excellent follow up and a good outcome this is your man.
