"Knee revision"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Trauma & orthopaedics

(as the patient),

Had operation to replace my knee replacement. Operation went well had the best surgeon as far as I am concerned same surgeon as I had last time. Could have had operation quicker if wanted to go to another hospital but I only trusted Mr Macdonald to do it. Right from the start of my journey from appointments to see him every one has been great. On morning of operation I was nervous but should not have been as every one of the staff did 100% to reassure me and put me at ease to many to name had successful operation then went to recovery / then to ward 14 where I was looked after by simply the best people you could hope to find from the top nurses down to the cleaners   and aftercare from mr Macdonald and his team. Had physio they were great   so all wrapped up I had full package of the best people you could have asked to look softer you.
