Dear sigmaxz55,
Thank you for taking the time to post a response following your elective knee replacement surgery on Jubilee ward.
It is always lovely to receive a feedback from our patients.
I am so sorry that you experienced a lot more pain and discomfort post operation than anticipated. Post-operatively pain is predictable, but I am hoping that the analgesia has at least taken the edge off.
I am delighted to hear that you are pleased now with the outcome, care and attention received.
I will pass on your kind words to the team and we all wish you a continued recovery and all the best for the future.
Kind regards,
Ana-Maria Bacsik
Senior Staff Nurse
Jubilee ward
