My hip problems came on suddenly and for about 2 months I attended various clinics who kept telling me it was Bursitis. As a very active 75 year old business woman I needed to be on form. My husband all along was telling me to seek out a Doctor at the London Bridge who would really investigate the offending hip. As my husband had also had a hip replaced a few years ago with Mr. Dunn, now retired, I was referred to Mr. Shah. After Xrays and MRI scan I was told that my hip was so badly worn I would ultimately have to have a total hip replacement. This was a shock as for some reason I just never expected it. Anyway once I discussed it fully with Mr. Shah I was confident that he was the best person to do this for me. I can say that throughout all consultations with him he was caring and explained everything to me. This continued after the operation on Jan 22nd when I spent 5 days being taken care of by the excellent team at the London Bridge Hospital. I had never been in hospital before and not had an operation and so I was very dependent on Mr. Shah's support and that of my family who have been terrific. Within four weeks I walked without my crutches and even attended an evening function that I had to host at Olympia. I followed the exercises religiously and I think this and the 3 flights of stairs to my bedroom that I went up and down every day quickened my recovery. I was, at my last consultation with Mr. Shah Feb 16th, able to walk unaided into the hospital. We agreed that I was very keen to get better and back to work asap and that my attitude and determination was very strong. Everyone is different but I do know by being positive and with encouragement from Mr. Shah and my family I am walking around without pain. I know I must not overdo it and know when my leg tells me it has had enough then I rest. Thanks to Mr. Shah I am almost back to my normal self.
