"Full Rt Knee Replacement"

I attended SWAOC  for a Full Rt knee replacement.

My Surgery and Operation was carried out early afternoon and I was eventually discharged from the Ward in the evening, after receiving post operative care, an xray and physiotherapy.

I felt relaxed and relatively calm throughout my treatment and care. I did get very anxious and slightly lightheaded/faint after hearing from the anaesthetist about the spinal anaesthetic treatment prior to the operation though.

I was very well looked after by an excellent and professional team all throughout my treatment, surgery and care. Everything was very well explained; including my medication to take and the physiotherapy requirements, especially my first time use of crutches.

Overall a very positive experience and I came away happy and reassured for my next and other Knee replacement.
