People choose to come to us for hip surgery for a number of reasons. Whether you live in Croydon, South London, elsewhere in Surrey or much further afield, when you choose Shirley Oaks for your hip treatment you will benefit from:
Rapid access to an expert
Hip problems can have a big impact on everyday life and you'll undoubtedly want to get things treated and resolved as soon as possible. With a number of leading hip experts on-site at any one time, we'll be able to book an appointment for you without delay, so that you can get started with any treatment necessary sooner.
With over 4 million patients on NHS waiting lists, it's important to know that you could have your care far sooner and also at a time of your choosing. Another benefit of going private is the reassurance of having surgery on a green site which is free of Covid and MRSA.
Excellent patient satisfaction rates
In an independent survey, over 97.6% of people we'd treated said they were likely or highly likely to recommend The Shirley Oaks Hospital to their friends and family. We're grateful for this feedback and continue to focus on providing the highest level of care for every person we treat.
A personal approach from start to finish
Everybody's hips are shaped slightly differently, and a bespoke approach to treatment ensures any treatment you receive is optimal for your specific condition and biomechanics. With our state-of-the-art facilities and a highly experienced team, we can treat you properly and get you back to better hip health sooner.
Remote consultations available
While consultations are routinely carried out in person at Shirley Oaks, we can also offer remote consultations by telephone or online video call if you prefer. Some patients prefer a hybrid approach, so that they get the in-person support they need, but don't have to travel unnecessarily. Let us know what's best for you.
Comprehensive support and aftercare included
After any kind of hip surgery, it's important you receive the right support and guidance throughout your recovery. Our dedicated physiotherapy team will support you throughout your time with us, helping you regain strength, mobility and function in your hip safely and at a sensible pace.
Implant availability
Many NHS trusts limit the use of more expensive implants to younger patients (in some cases under 55s only). At Shirley Oaks Hospital we will always choose an implant that will be suitable for your lifestyle needs and bone quality, rather than just treating you by your age.
Multidisciplinary team
From experienced consultant orthopaedic surgeons to physiotherapists, nurses, podiatrists, occupational therapists and radiologists, we have the expertise to ensure you receive the best treatment for your specific hip condition, as well as optimised rehabilitation and recovery afterwards.
