In September of last year I broke my wrist abroad - it was a bad break which has taken all of this time to get to a point where life is almost normal !
From the moment I saw a UK Dr, Debbie from Hand Therapy has been by my side- supported through casts and plate insertion and removals. Going above and beyond to ensure that my care has been second to none. From a Hand Therapy view she has been instrumental in getting me back as much flexibility as I can - lots of comfort / guidance / ideas to improve as well as a few well deserved telling offs when I was perhaps cheating at little at the exercises. Her manner and level of interest makes you feel like an individual not a number . This is so key when you are faced with a situation which has a huge impact on your day to day life. Debbie made the appointments less intimidating and always gave positive encouragement when progress was made.
Appointment frequency was sometimes impacted by the huge demand the team faces but when they happened it was worth any wait. I cannot thank Debbie enough and will always appreciate her care and interest in my recovery. If I could give out a medal it would be Platinum- Gold is not enough - what a star 🌟
Thank you 🙏
