I found Mr Salih professional and Caring. The whole team were amazing. Perfect.
From the initial consultation I liked how Mr Salih described everything and explained everything surgery went smoothly and my recovery from my partial knee replacement has been rapid, and much quicker than the recovery from my total knee replacment on the other side.i am delighted.
I am currently six weeks post-op from my partial knee replacement, and the entire experience has been smooth with no problems at all. My recovery progressed so quickly that I stopped using my crutches at just two weeks because they were actually getting in my way. The persistent pain I lived with before surgery is completely gone, and I have already regained great movement and flexibility in the joint. I couldn't be happier with the results.
Mr Salih took time to explain my condition and the available treatments options and was able to provide the complete treat8the same day which was amazing.
I had a really good experience and I am 100% better pain wise now than before my hip replacement. The hospital was good and Mr Salih was fantastic.
It's been brilliant. The hospital was outstanding and all the staff were great including Mr Salih. Thank you for my half knee
Mr Salih has been very open and friendly from the first appointment. He made me feel a lot happier once I had a treatment plan. And I am doing really well after my hip replacment.
Mr Salih was very informative about my knee pain. I was a bit nervous about the operation but Mr Salih saw me before and after to explain everything which all went well. I am having my other knee replaced in 3 months time.
I have known and worked with Samir for many years and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone seeking a hip and knee specialist. Samir is a great orthopaedic surgeon and a great colleague. He is very calm, approachable, and communicates clearly with patients and colleagues. He is highly respected and well liked by peers and the wider multidisciplinary team. Samir is constantly striving to provide the highest standards of care and I would recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for a hip and knee specialist.
