"Their knowledge and expertise has been first class throughout"

About: Outpatients Services / MSK Physiotherapy Outpatients

(as a service user),

I have just been discharged from the rehab gym after completing 2 years of physiotherapy and rehabilitation following a serious leg injury. 

The staff at the gym have given me my life back. I had to go through every step from straightening my leg, then learning to move my leg, then to beginning to weight bear and eventually build up to exercise and increasing strength. 

I could not have asked for a better team to help me in my recovery process and cannot praise them enough. 

In particular I would like to think Anna and Chris who have always been friendly, supportive and provided humour when times were tough. Their knowledge and expertise has been first class throughout. 

I leave in a better position than I thought was possible after my injuries and I owe it all to them.

Dear grant203,

Thank you so much for taking time to post this brilliant feedback on the care you received by our excellent Fracture Team in RVH.

As the Lead for Fracture Physiotherapy team as you can guess I'm very proud of them and delighted that you had a positive rehab experience in the gym.

I have passed your compliment to both the Anna and Chris who always go above and beyond for their patients so it's great for that to recognised. They are both invaluable members of the Team who will appreciate the acknowledgement.

Despite your traumatic experience I'm glad you've done well with your rehab and even managed to have a laugh on the way.

Best Wishes

Louis O'Connor (Team Lead Physio Fractures)
