Dr Richard Freihaut Orthopaedic Surgeon

Dr Freihaut has been treating me for a fractured elbow. I am pleased to say his prompt treatment and highly skilled advice has been first class and faultless. I would recommend him to anyone.

I CAN'T SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH OF DR FREIHAUT i was 34yo when i met dr freihaut. my left hip was just bone on bone, i was in excruciating pain 24/7, barely able to walk and totally despondent. i'd been rejected by other surgeons for a total hip replacement as they thought i was too young. their solution was that i live in pain and on opiates for another 10 yrs and reassess things then. i don't recall how or who referred me to dr freihaut but i owe that person my eternal gratitude. dr feihaut recommended a total hip replacement asap. it would give me quality of life back, avoid unnecessary pain and sufferng and by the time it would need to be replaced, technology could conceivably advance so far that what wasn't possible in 2009 could be in 2019. dr freihaut earned my trust on the spot and he has had my respect ever since. he told me to expect a 10yr lifespan for the new hip, possibly longer if i look after it, before needing to replace it. it's been 14 yrs and apart from minor discomfort on a handful of occasions, the hip has been an absolute triumph. i play squash, run regularly...two things he specifically advised against, yet i have no doubt i'll get at least 10 more yrs out of it. dr freihaut literally gave me my life back. i was preparing to be a 35 yo invaild til i saw him. thank you dr freihaut, i can't sufficiently articulate how much you improved my life. may you continue doing your incredible work for many years to come. sincerely, joce ilievski
