Explanation

I suffered many years of extreme pain in my right foot/ankle and after going down all other routes I finally decided that surgery was my only option. After reading about Mr Nanavati, I felt I was in safe hands. On my first consultation he was polite and confident that he could help me. This made the operation day less stressful. I went into the operation with a positive mindset. I have had many operations previously, this one was the best experience from start to finish. I found the whole team friendly and put me at ease during the procedure. Afterwards I hardly had any pain and everything went to plan. Operations are scary things to go through, worrying what the outcome is. Even though I am half way through my journey ( I' m awaiting an ankle replacement) I feel I am now less nervous about the next stage. This surgery will be life changing for me, I will be able to continue and enjoy my life in the future! I would highly recommend Mr Nanavati to anyone with complex ankle surgery needs. Also my scars look great, very neat, which was very important to me.

Mr Nikhil explained my condition, describing my treatment options and provided me with clear support and advice throughout every step of the way. From my first consultation, on the day of my procedure and post operation I felt confident in his care. He provided clear and precise instructions about how to speed up my recovery process by elevating my foot to encourage successful bone fusion.

Nikhil impressed me immensely as a trainee over the 15 years I’ve been involved in the teaching of orthopaedic surgeons, so much so that I was extremely keen to appoint him to a substantive post a couple of years ago. Since then he has shown incredible expertise and enthusiasm, with many glowing compliments from patients and with many staff also seeking his help with their foot and ankle problems, which speaks volumes. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

I have known Nikhil as both a Trainee and as a Consultant colleague for more than 5 years. I have seen his interactions with patients and colleagues as well as the outcomes of his procedures. Nikhil is a caring doctor, approachable and technically skilled. He is a consummate professional, taking great care over his patients and going the extra mile to ensure everything works out as well as possible for them. I would have no qualms in Nikhil treating my friends, family or indeed myself. I highly recommend his as an orthopaedic surgeon specialising in foot and ankle conditions.
