I want to thank NHS GGC staff for the excellent treatment that I have received as a patient suffering from severe leg pain as a result of a large lumbar disc bulge.
I was assessed and treated in MSK Physiotherapy (NVIC) by Morven who, with her highly specialist experience, was able to guide me on the right pathway for rehab with empathy and compassion. I was referred for an MRI and then on to Orthopaedics for surgical opinion.
The Radiology department were so professional and made me feel at ease when I was struggling to move. The Orthopaedic staff which included Mr Brownson and his surgical team, pre-op staff and the Advanced Practice Ortho physios (Martijn and Jenny) were all outstanding in supporting me through a very difficult time offering reassurance and hope.
The QEUH Orthopaedic ward staff which included domestic staff, support workers, physios, nurses and the medical team were amazing and treated me with dignity and respect.
The care and attention that I have received could not be faulted - Thank you!
