FAQ

What is your experience in performing the specific surgery or treatment I need?

As a private hip and knee surgeon with years of experience, I have performed numerous surgeries and treatments for various conditions related to the hip and knee. I have a proven track record of successful outcomes and patient satisfaction. I stay current with the latest advancements in technology and techniques in my field to provide the best possible care for my patients.

What is the success rate of the surgery or treatment?

The success rate of the surgery or treatment depends on various factors, including the patient's condition, overall health, and adherence to post-operative care instructions. However, I strive to achieve the best possible results for my patients and have a high success rate for hip and knee surgeries and treatments.

What type of anesthesia will be used and what are the risks associated with it?

The type of anesthesia used will depend on the individual patient and their medical history. We typically use either general anesthesia or regional anesthesia, which numbs only the affected area. Both types of anesthesia have their own risks and benefits, which I will discuss with the patient beforehand to ensure they are fully informed and comfortable with the procedure.

What is the expected recovery time and what can I do to aid in the recovery process?

Recovery time can vary depending on the specific surgery or treatment performed and the patient's overall health. However, I will provide the patient with a detailed recovery plan that includes physical therapy and other exercises to aid in the healing process. Patients can also aid in their recovery by following all post-operative care instructions, including rest, taking medication as prescribed, and attending follow-up appointments.

How will you manage pain control after the surgery or treatment?

Pain management is an essential part of the recovery process, and we will work closely with the patient to ensure they are comfortable and pain-free. This may include a combination of medication, physical therapy, and other techniques such as ice therapy or heat therapy. I will closely monitor the patient's pain levels and adjust their treatment plan as needed to ensure they are receiving the best possible care.

Simon made me feel totally relaxed about whole Hip replacement procedure. His confidence regarding the surgery and the outcome were totally justified. My new hip is great and enabling me to be just as energetic as before, totally pain free!

Operation was no drama, calm, and efficient. Going without the general anesthetic was a revelation and speeded up feeling normal after the op. Mr Garrett answered all my questions and I never felt confused about what was going on at any step of the process. Along with the anesthetist, nursing staff, and physio, the team made the whole experience no-where near as traumatic as expected.

Had hip replacement surgery in March and have been amazed by the whole experience. The minute I walked into my consultation I felt completely as ease and had every confidence with Simon. The whole thing was explained clearly and although very nervous for the operation had complete trust that I was in good hands. The surgery was a great success and my recovery was also a lot quicker than I expected. I will need to have the other side replaced and will be going back to Simon for that also.

My husband had a hip replacement at the end of November 2018. We were extremely impressed with Simon Garrett with his whole approach of the procedure from start to finish. He seems to adopt the most up to date methods and the best recovery methods for the patient. Mr Garrett is probably the most professional and approachable doctor we have ever had the pleasure of dealing with and he is supported by a very well organised and efficient secretary. We know other people who have had hip replacements but comparing experiences we were very fortunate to have had him.
