"Hip replacement"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Trauma & orthopaedics

(as a relative),

My husband had a hip replacement last week . The care was excellent from start to finish. His consultant was Mr Davidson who was so professional, approachable and had great communication. 

The pre assessment staff, theatre staff, physiotherapy staff and staff in ward 7 were all fantastic. 

A huge thanks to everyone.

Dear Wee maw,

Thank you so much for sharing your recent experience of University Hospital Wishaw, Trauma and Orthopaedics.

I am so pleased to hear that your husband's hip replacement with Mr Davidson went well and that you found him to be professional and approachable. Attending hospital for a procedure can be such a worrying time for both our patients and their families and I am glad that Mr Davidson reassured you with his excellent communication.

I am glad that all the staff who cared for your husband were fantastic I would be delighted to pass on your kind words and feedback to the whole team involved and I am sure this recognition will give the team a real boost.

I hope your husband is recovering well.

Kind Regards,

Jenni
