Patient Reviews

My sincere gratitude for my successful knee replacement operation. I greatly appreciate your highly skilled expertise and kind and thoughtful attention. It is giving me a new lease of life and has healed remarkably quickly in five weeks. Thank you and your wonderful team. Yours sincerely,

Mr Kempanna performed a total knee replacement on my father. We were both very happy with the care received. He was attentive, professional and friendly. Due to my father’s age, Mr K was honest about risks and possible outcomes, but the surgery was successful and has given my dad the chance to be mobile again without knee pain. Thank you!

I had surgery on a grade 3 hamstring tear in my right leg. The information Mr Kempanna provided prior to my surgery was excellent. I was under no illusion as to what to expect. The surgery went very well and post surgery, I feel, I have been supported and reviewed to a high standard giving me the best opportunity to make a full recovery.

I cannot thank Mr Kempanna enough after a silly accident he fixed my broken elbow. His came to speak to me prior and after surgery. I was made to feel comfortable and thoroughly informed of the procedure. After care was brilliant and clinics ran to time. I highly recommend Mr Kempanna. Regards

Absolutely brilliant

i was initially referred to Mr Kempanna in 2022 by my GP, as I was having considerable pain in my left hip. From my first consultation the care that I received was of the highest level. I was extremely fortunate to be referred to Mr Kempanna. He is a truly remarkable gentleman and is driven totally by the needs of his patients. As a keen sportsman, I wished to continue playing tennis, golf and cycling. Mr Kempanna advised that he could manage my condition through injection for the first six months but that a full hip replacement would then be needed. I had my replacement in November 2023 and less than 6 months later have been able to resume a full range of leisure and sporting pursuits without pain . I cannot recommend Mr Kempanna highly enough. From my first appointment through to surgery and post operative care, I could not have asked for anything more. I am truly grateful.
Thank you very much.

I can’t thank Mr Kempanna enough for the incredible care and expertise he and his team provided during my hip replacement surgery.
From the initial consultation to the post-operative assessment , their professionalism and dedication were evident every step of the way.
With great pleasure I unequivocally recommend Mr Kempanna to anyone considering a hip replacement.

I can not praise Mr Kempanna and his team for all they have done for me. First class care, for my operation and after care. I thank him so very much. I can walk again, after old hip removed, and replaced, also bone graft on my pelvis. And all of his after care in outpatient clinic. Thank you so very much, and stay safe. 🙏

I had my hip replacement on 27th Jan done by Mr Kempanna. It’s 6 weeks. I am back on my feet. What a big difference he made.
Very helpful. Fantastic service.
Strongly recommend him for hip replacement Very happy with out come.

I had a total hip replacement at Fairfield General Hospital in May 2018 which failed less than two years later.
The pain that I was in at that time was excruciating.
At one stage I was on a mixture of Liquid Morphine & Tramadol to try to ease the pain.
After being referred to North Manchester Hospital I was then referred to Salford Royal under the care of Mr Kempanna.
After months of tests to rule out infection I had a revised complex total hip replacement in March 2022.
The operation was done by Mr Kempanna & Mr Gill & their team which took over eight hours because basically they had to reconstruct my hip.
I was in hospital for eight days so that they could monitor me carefully for any infection.
It has now been eleven months since my operation & I am doing great, I am finally off my crutches which I have been on for the past twenty months.
I still have a bit of rehabilitation to go but the outlook for me is good & I WILL get there.
I now look forward to getting back to work & a normal life.
The truth is Mr Kempanna, Mr Gill & their team & all of the staff at Salford Royal Hospital have given me my life back & I will be forever grateful.
I always felt confident that Mr Kempanna was taking a personal & genuine concern in my welfare & recovery & was doing everything he could to make that outcome as positive as possible.
I would like to thank Salford Royal Hospital for the amazing professional care I received throughout my personal trauma.
The staff in the Fracture Clinic were always helpful & efficient, my many appointments there were never delayed.
In my eight day stay at the hospital the food was great & the ward was spotless.
I cannot praise Salford Royal Hospital enough & I will be forever grateful for the amazing professional care that I received.

They have restored my faith in The National Health Service.

Mr Kempanna is a great doctor. He listened to my knee problem and got this fully resolved. No problem in recommending him.

I was troubled with my arthritic hip. I saw Mr Kempanna and he examined me carefully. He adviced for hip replacement. I had hip replacement surgery 6 weeks after seeing him and I am pleased to say what a great job he has done. I can walk normally again! No pain and no limping. Highly recommend.

To Mr V. Kempanna, Thank you for all you have done for me. Look after yourself.

Would just like to thank you for taking the time to listen and make your patients feel valued, and delivering the treatment plan you advised at our first meeting. Because of your care and concern and expediting advice to GP about colorectal pain, I am now back to the care of the Consultant at tameside and undergoing investigations. All thanks to your intervention and support.

“It is very much appreciated”

Thank you for doing such an excellent operation on replacing my hip. A small token of my appreciation. Thank you so very much.

Thank you for everything so neat!

Already such a difference, I cannot thank you enough

Just a few lines to say how very grateful I am for my successful hip replacement (18.6.21). Ins spite of a few last-minute nerves as soon as I entered the operating area, the team’s confidence soon erased any nerves. I cannot thank you all enough for giving me my life back.

To Mr. Vijaya Kumar Hosahalli Kempanna and the surgical team and anesthetists for all your expert medical care in giving me my new hip and helping me to re-gain independence and pain-free walking in the near future.

“and it’s especially for you”

My family and I are just so very grateful for all you have done and helping me to feel reassured, supported, and informed all the way. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! Best Regards

This time last year you are preparing me for surgery on my right hip to be followed by a new hip in January. Well, here I am a year later to thank you for the care and attention you gave me so that I could greet the New Year 2019 with both feet on the ground. You have kindly arranged to see me in January. I do hope you are well and may I wish you a Very Happy and Healthy 2019.

Renewed thanks and best wishes, sincerely

A big thank you for the wonderful surgical team who replaced my broken hip on Monday 26th February 2018. People with your skills and care make a difference. GOD bless you
