Joint Replacement Surgery Europe

I had a total left hip replacement last Wednesday 18 January 2023 by epidural. I had a total right hip replacement by the same method back in March 2021 done by Mr James Lewis. Going by how good the operation, care and recovery to a normal active life was last time with the right hip, when I knew that the left one needed doing there was no one else that I would have do the procedure for me but James Lewis. Once again from the pre operation appointment to the actual operation and aftercare I was kept fully aware of what would happen. The operation went as planned and within hours of recovery from the epidural I was up and walking with a frame/sticks and pain free. I came out two days later and am now (four days after op) walking with one stick although sometimes forgetting to use the stick altogether! I'm sure within a couple of days I will not need sticks at all. I cannot thank Mr Lewis enough for what he has done and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone with hip/knee problems.

I went for my consultation with Dr Panayi and straight away I felt at ease he was very professional and understanding. He sent me for an X-ray the same day and saw me again after my X-ray. I was given excellent information and advised what was best for me in the long term. I am now waiting to go into hospital in one week.

I was diagnosed with congenital hip dysplasia. About six months ago it started to get worse and I was in serious pain doing my daily activities. After researching Prof. Fahri Erdogan for a long time I finally decided to consult him with my reports and files. International patient coordinator Mr Ege replied to me in an hour and collected the information they need to consult Dr Fahri. The next day Mr Ege got back to me with detailed explanations of Dr Fahri’s opinion, the injury and possible treatment processes. He sent me x-rays and videos of previous patients who had surgery for hip dysplasia. I knew Dr Fahri is known to be very successful in knee and hip replacement surgeries, but after seeing before-after videos of his patients I decided to book the trip and get the surgery performed by him. Mr Ege who spoke perfect English met us at the airport and was with us all the time. After meeting Dr Fahri in person for the physical examination I felt I am in safe hands due to his knowledge and confidence. His team arranged the treatment process as we spoke, and on my 3rd day in Istanbul, the surgery was performed. Dr Fahri and his team regularly visited me in the hospital during my 5-day stay. They helped me walk short distances. Even 1 day after the operation I was able to walk with a much better posture. They thought my physical therapy exercises and explained to me the healing period briefly. After resting 3 more days at the hotel Mr Ege dropped us to the airport for our flight back. It has been 5 months since the surgery and I can’t tell you how happy I am. I am able to walk with a much better posture and no pain at all. I used to avoid events that require physical activity before the surgery. Now I am basically able to do anything without help. I can take care of my daily jobs, join social gatherings and enjoy my days again. My pain is completely healed and my posture is much better, all thanks to Dr Fahri and his team, I strongly recommend Dr Fahri to anyone who needs a hip replacement surgery. You don’t have to live with it. Let Dr Fahri help you and you’ll regain your life quality with your treated hips.
