See what our patients say

I had a hip replacement done 11 years ago and Mr Garala just did the other side a few weeks ago. The difference in the recovery is remarkable. Even though I'm older now I recovered so much quicker. The care and empathy I received from Mr Garala was exemplary.

Patient of Kanai Garala

I've recovered very well from my hip replacement and am so happy that I can get back to zumba again! The incision is much smaller than I expected and the recovery was much better than I was told because I had a front hip replacement.

Patient of Kanai Garala

Mr Garala did a complex hip replacement for me. It was after multiple prior surgeries. I've just been signed off by him and have recovered very well! I can get down to touch the floor now!

Patient of Kanai Garala

I had my hip replaced and have been walking without a stick 4 weeks after surgery.

Patient of Kanai Garala

Mr Garala is a softly spoken surgeon who takes genuine care and interest in his patients. He did my mums hip replacement. She was very frail and couldn't get out the house before or even put her socks on. Now she is pain free and we can take her on holiday for the 1st time in a long time.

Patient of Kanai Garala

As a jehovahs witness I was worried about the hip replacement. Mr Garala was lovely throughout and respected all my wishes. My hip is pain free now at 6 weeks and it has changed my life.

Patient of Kanai Garala

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 Garala

By 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.
