- My recent hip replacement seems to have been a great success and I was discharged todaay. Mr Lusty gave me the confidence to go ahead despite my nervousness. Both pre op and post op he was patient and informative, making time for my numerous questions as were his team. He also has a good sense of humour. Thank you so very much. I shall walk with a bounce in my step forthwith !
- Excellent doctor. Would highly recommend.
- Mr Lusty performed an orthoscopy on my right leg which was fantastic. He’s also just done a total knee replacement on my left knee and it was equally excellent. I highly recommend him without hesitation.
- Mr Lusty was excellent with a friendly, reassuring manner, taking the time to listen and explain everything clearly throughout. I had total trust in him and an excellent outcome. I especially liked that he didn’t make me feel bad about my condition and was extremely knowledgeable which helped me feel confident with my decision.
- I did a lot of research before my hip replacement to find the best surgeon. All feedback was that Lusty was the best orthopaedic surgeon. All feedback was that he goes to the extra mile. This has been born out by my own experience when I received several calls at home post op asking me how I was progressing.
- A good experience all round. Everything was explained well and felt I could ask anything.
- This was my second hip operation performed by Mr Lusty. the previous one was three years ago. Both operations were very successful and I am very pleased with his professionalism. Would certainly recommend him to others without hesitation.
- I had my left hip replaced on 8th October 2025. He is very thorough and and very passionate about what he does explaining everything beforehand and taking a keen interest in your recovery after surgery. To be out of pain and fully mobile and living life again is fantastic.
