Patient hails new hip replacement technique which helped her get back on her feet just one week after surgery. 🙌

After living with debilitating hip pain for more than three years, North Wales resident Mrs Davies turned to Mr Muthu Ganapathi at Spire Murrayfield Hospital Wirral for a Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) hip replacement. This innovative muscle-sparing technique can help reduce post-operative pain and support a faster recovery. Just one week after surgery, Mrs Davies was walking unaided and already experiencing life-changing results. 💙

Reflecting on her experience, Mrs Davies said 💬 "After living with discomfort for so long, waking up pain-free felt nothing short of a miracle. It's given me my life back. I can finally start looking forward to getting back outdoors and enjoying the walks I love again."

The procedure was one of the first direct anterior approach (DAA) hip replacements performed at Spire Murrayfield Hospital Wirral since the service launched in June 2026.

👨‍⚕️Led by consultant orthopaedic surgeons Mr Muthu Ganapathi and Mr Koldo Azurza, the introduction of this technique represents an important step forward in expanding innovative surgical options for patients. It also improves access to an advanced hip replacement approach that remains relatively uncommon in the UK for private patients across the region.
