I had a long awaited hip replacement on a Subchondral Insufficiency Fracture of the left femur. The situation was complex as I have Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma).
Post surgery at Hairmyres University Hospital, I had the most amazing care in HDU before being transferred to Ward 1.
The excellence of care carried on with the involvement of the enhanced recovery' program staff which in my case, included dieticians too.
I've just had the 6 week check up & am walking with two, sometimes one stick (still got creaky knees). The wound is healing beautifully & my pain level has been substantially reduced. So a great big thank you to the surgical team & all the many staff involved in my care.
"Excellent surgery & first class aftercare."
