The Hip Physio

Working with Mehmet over the past three months has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my recovery. After an initial in-person session, we continued with monthly Zoom calls while I traveled between England, Panama, and the U.S., and he somehow managed to keep my rehab completely on track. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping his clients succeed. Even remotely, he provides clear guidance, thoughtful adjustments to the program, and the kind of accountability that makes you actually stick to the work. Rehab can be a long process, but Mehmet has made it feel manageable and motivating. I’d highly recommend him to anyone dealing with hip issues or recovering from a total hip replacement surgery.

I had a wonderful experience rehabbing with Mehmet for my hip injury. With his in-depth knowledge he explained my condition and the outcomes I should be aiming for very clearly. After years of chronic pain, I regained a lot of confidence in managing the condition and my hip strength and stability have improved in a truly functional way.

I can’t recommend Mehmet highly enough. Without him I would still be in constant pain. I am 60 and have had severe pain in my right leg when walking or standing for at least 30 years and over the last 5 years it has become progressively worse to the point about 2 years ago I couldn’t even stand in the kitchen long enough to cook dinner. Over the years I have tried every conventional and alternative therapy going with nobody being clear about why I had the pain, so I would give up and try something else. I found Mehmet on Instagram and made an in person appointment. Despite living 3 hours away it was worth every mile. He was the first person to really listen and understand the impact my pain was having on my life. And he was really confident that all my issues were caused by hip dysplasia. I had been diagnosed with dysplasia in my 20’s but a hip replacement was never suggested. Mehmet put me in touch with Professor Griffin and I had a total hip replacement on 24 Feb 2026. With Professor Griffin’s expertise and Mehmet’s rehab I am practically pain free eight weeks later. Post surgery I had some online appointments and one in person one to direct me on my rehab. I also have Mehmet’s The Hip Physio app to guide me. Without meeting Mehmet I think I would have become more depressed and hopeless about the future. Thank you Mehmet - you are amazing.

Working with Mehmet has been the number 1 best thing that I have ever done to understand and fix my sciatica pain . If you have somehow come across this wonderfully capable physical therapist run , don’t walk to book your appointment .

Straight to the point, no nonsense approach from Mehmet. Seems that an ongoing issue in the industry is a prescription for cookie cutter exercises that may have little regard for your specific limitations e.g. do 90/90s to help with hip mobility - even if you have FAI. No such approach from Mehmet. Instead a bespoke, incremental regime imposed that has yielded measurable improvements. Has not ‘cured’ my FAI- not that I expected that, but it is so much better than I dared think it could be.

I cannot recommend Mehmet enough. After 2 years of hip and lower back pain with no tangible support from the NHS and lots of money spent on physios, osteopaths and massage, I found Mehmet on Instagram. Luckily I live locally and was able to have an in-person assessment. He was extremely thorough and I left with a rehab programme, which I worked on weekly and checked in with Mehmet virtually. The programme was tweaked as I improved and he was able to conduct physical assessments online really successfully. My progress has been gradual, but I am now in significantly less pain, feel stronger and moving towards running again. I am working on the strength training programme Mehmet set me and have no doubt I will continue to improve and will check back in with him if I need it. I would highly recommend reaching out to Mehmet if you have any unresolved hip pain, his knowledge and skills are top level. The best money I have ever spent!

When it comes to issues with the hips look no further!! I had been struggling with a hip issue (FAI) for 3 years on and off. Went to numerous physios and spent a fortune but never got it sorted. So I took the bull by the horns and decided to try see a specialist. All my appts with Mehmet were online. After initial consultation he put me on a strength programme and we checked in once every 6-8 weeks where the rehab would be progressed. After approx 10 months of this it seems to be sorted. He gave me a few exercises to do once per week and discharged me. Since seeing Mehmet I have completed numerous half marathons a full marathon and recently a half ironman distanc e triathlon. Just starting training for a marathon in October. None of this would have been possible without Mehmet’s expertise.

Helped out an ageing athlete with a football injury. Memmet really took the time to understand where I was with things and did a comprehensive assessment leaving no stones unturned. Clear, structured programme of rehab that has got me back to competitive sports again, great work!

After years of ongoing hip pain, attending multiple private and NHS physios, and having FAI surgery I found Mehmet on instagram and subsequently visited his clinic. He took the time to understand my hip history, thoroughly assessed me and then set me up with a progressive program of exercises that really made a difference. I continued to work with Mehmet online for the next few months where he was able to assess my progress and adapt my exercise and rehab program. To say this was game changing would be an understatement. A few months later I’m mostly pain free and rather than continue to take my money Mehmet set me up with a maintenance program to take forward myself, and left his door open should I need any support. Would highly recommend!

I can't speak highly enough of Mehmet. He has been instrumental in helping me overcome chronic hip pain caused by FAI (femoroacetabular impingement) syndrome. I initially reached out to him in 2023 following a diagnosis of a torn labrum in my hip. Due to COVID-related delays, I had been waiting over three years for surgery, during which time my condition significantly worsened. I had lost considerable strength and stability, was in constant pain, reliant on strong painkillers, and struggled with basic daily activities such as driving, sitting on certain chairs, and even wearing specific clothing or footwear. Although I was initially apprehensive about virtual physio, Mehmet immediately put me at ease. He was attentive, knowledgeable, down to earth, and genuinely took the time to understand my limitations and needs. I was skeptical about how effective a virtual assessment could be, but Mehmet conducted a thorough evaluation and designed a personalised program tailored to my lifestyle and goals. Together, we set clear objectives, and the exercises he provided helped me regain strength and, more importantly, confidence. I eventually had surgery in October 2024, and although I received standard NHS physiotherapy afterward, I found it wasn’t as effective as I had hoped. I reconnected with Mehmet in February 2025, and once again, he made a huge difference. His post surgery rehab program has significantly improved my recovery. For context, I hadn’t been able to ride a bike for four years now, I cycle 30 minutes, 3 - 4 times a week. I truly can’t thank Mehmet enough. He has been far more helpful in supporting my healing journey than any in-person physio I’ve seen. He is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and always offers alternative exercises if something doesn’t work for me, ensuring I can continue progressing without feeling discouraged. Thanks to Mehmet, I no longer experience the chronic pain I had before for many years. I am now able to drive pain free and I can manage most day to day task without any pain or discomfort. I am incredibly grateful for his support and would highly recommend him to anyone struggling with hip pain. He’s brilliant!
