"Right hip replacement"

About: North Devon District Hospital / General surgery North Devon District Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

Had Hip replacement done under general anaesthetic. They woke me up after and kept me in for the night to check any complications.

Wed afternoon was able to go home after checks was done and training given to use stairs and crutches. Once the physio team was happy I was discharged.
