See what our patients say
I’m genuinely appreciative of the care I received from Mr Garala, who performed a total right hip replacement on me. From my first appointment, he made me feel completely supported. His communication was clear, reassuring, and never rushed. Any time I reached out with a question, he was responsive and thoughtful, which made such a difference to my confidence before the procedure and during my recovery. I’m especially thankful for the skill and attention he put into closing my wound. At just eight weeks post‑op, the scar is barely visible, and that’s down to his expertise. I'm not yet 50, and Kanai's whole approach to the surgery aligned perfectly with my outlook on staying active and playing sports (within reason!). I feel like he really understood what mattered to me. I couldn’t be more appreciative of the care I received. It feels amazing to be pain free again, and I cannot thanks Mr Garala enough!
— Patient of Kanai GaralaBy the time I got to mr Garala my hip was destroyed and my leg was 2 inches shorter than the other leg. I'd been told my hip needed a salvage operation because of how bad it was. Now a few weeks later my hip replacement feels amazing. Mr Garalas care and compassion was exemplary, explaining the process throughout and most importantly, delivering on the operation. He had to use extra pieces of metal around the hip due to the loss of bone. I'm back to walking my dog 4 times a day and am going back to work. I can't believe what a difference it has made to my life.
— Patient of Kanai GaralaI cannot sing praises enough for Mr Garala. He has done such a wonderful job with my hip replacement which he did through an front approach which didn't cut any muscles. I recovered so much quicker then I expected!
— Patient of Kanai GaralaMr Garala is very rare for a surgeon in that he really loves talking to patients and is a people person. He explains everything carefully and thoroughly and really made me feel safe. He did a total hip replacement for me which has gone very well. I'm delighted with the result and will be coming back to him when the other hip needs doing.
— Patient of Kanai GaralaMr Garala is such a delight. He did a total hip replacement and the pain is completely gone. The wound is nice and tidy.
— Patient of Kanai GaralaReceived the appointment quite quickly after referral. During appointment felt listened to. Mr Sahemey was thorough, x-ray was informative but lacking detail so a scan was organised within 2 weeks. A telephone appointment followed - approx 6 weeks. Mr Sahemey was polite and professional and went through scan findings in detail. He outlined 2 options for treatment- giving more information about each. We both considered the intensive physiotherapy the best option. He said I should hear from them next week and kept my referral open should there be further incidents in the mean time.
— Patient of Raj SahemeyExcellent, mr perera clearly explained his findings and provided options going forward.
— Patient of Anthony PereraOver all good experience
