Mr Kanai Garala is a highly trained consultant specialising in hip replacement surgery and pelvic trauma. He practises at The Harborne Hospital, part of HCA Healthcare UK, Priory Hospital Edgbaston and the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, and has trauma commitments at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham. With dual fellowship training in hip replacement and pelvic trauma, Mr Garala focuses on complex surgeries, revision hip surgery, and treating pelvic and acetabular (hip socket) trauma. He is one of the few surgeons in Birmingham with expertise in acetabular trauma reconstruction and redo hip surgery, and receives referrals from across the region for these challenging cases. Additionally, he has completed a robotic surgery fellowship at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham, gaining proficiency in advanced robotic systems such as MAKO and ROSA.
Mr Garala graduated with a double honours degree in medicine and has passed the MRCP (medical) and FRCS Orth (surgical) exams. He has published over 20 peer-reviewed research papers and frequently presents his work at national and international conferences. He is an active member of the British Hip Society, the British Orthopaedic Association and the Orthopaedic Trauma Society.
I also made a few small tidy-ups: British spelling ("specialising", "practises"), "Mr" without the full stop, and "Edgbaston" capitalised. Bear in mind that "dual fellowship" originally covered hip and knee arthroplasty plus pelvic trauma, so it's worth checking with Mr Garala that the reworded line still describes his training accurately.

Mr Kanai Garala is clear and caring to all. He gives good care so patients feel safe. They get back to sports fast and walk well with no pain. Key themes are hip replacement and robotic assisted hip surgery.
Mr Garala is passionate about sports and it comes through when he talks about recovery. He was adamant that I'd go back to playing sports after my hip replacement. A couple of months have gone by since I had it done and I've been running 5km park runs and playing tennis again.
Mr Garala is a charming and caring surgeon who has taken care of me. My hip replacement feels great.
It's been 2 months since my hip replacement by Mr Garala. I'm back to work lifting solid wooden pallets and haven't felt it at all.
I wish I had my hip replacement earlier. My friends can't believe it as I have no limp and am playing badminton again. Mr Garala delivered on his promise to get me back to sport again.
Super job. I had a muscle protecting hip replacement done by Mr Garala and was walking without sticks within a week. I only needed paracetamol and never needed anything more. I cannot believe the recovery. My neighbour had her hip done 10 weeks before me and is jealous of my recovery as she still can't do what I can do.
There was no fuss. My computer guided hip replacement has gone brilliantly and I'm back to all the sports I did before. I'm absolutely delighted with it all
The pain has gone and I am up and about following the hip replacement. Wound has healed beautifully.
My recovery was uneventful following a hip replacement with Mr Garala. I'm very happy.
My hip replacement went wrong and I was referred to mr Garala to sort it out. The 1st surgeons broke my pelvis when putting the implants in. Mr Garala went through everything with me, from the operation through to the recovery. After the horror of the 1st operation I can now say how grateful I am that I can walk again without any sticks. Apparantly this is quite a difficult surgery so Mr Garala gets full marks from me. I have arthritis in my other hip and I'm definitely going to come and see Mr Garala again.
The Hip replacement has gone very well. Fantastic team and staff. Going to be going back to golf and tennis this week
Mr Kanai Garala is an outstanding hip & knee replacement and pelvic trauma surgeon. His expertise is matched by a calm, patient-centred manner. A highly respected colleague.
