Ankle Fusion Procedure

"Ankle Fusion Procedure"

About: The James Cook University Hospital

I was admitted to the hospital on 18th May for the above operation. From the first moment I went into admissions I was treated with respect and professionalism. I was very very nervous and all the staff I spoke to were there to reassure me. After the op I was transferred to ward 36 and again tbe staff were very kind andconsiderate. All the staff on ward 36 were exemplary and all went the extra mile to make my stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. I would like to thank all the staff for their kindness and professionalism. I would like to commend especially all the staff on ward 36 they were friendly and nothing was too much trouble, when I was no weight bearing on my right foot. Thank you to everybody who looked after me fo my 2 days stay, it was very much appreciated, by me and my family. Diane Patton
