"Arthroscopy-Knee, (Key hole Surgery) Best…"

About: Emersons Green NHS Treatment Centre

Arthroscopy on my knee. I received pre-op @ 07:00, ready for surgery @ 08:30. The triage Nurses were excellent, made you feel very comfortable and relaxed. Most important they both had smiles on their faces, which helps if you are a little anxious. The Anaesthetist was also very professional, making you feel relaxed and in good hands. The Surgeon came round next, explaining the procedure and what to expect in recovery. When I went under the Anaesthetic, the Anaesthetist joked by saying I am going to give you some good beer, which you won't taste, but will make you feel good, that was the last I can remember. Forty five minutes later I came round, I was amazed how quick the procedure was and how easy it was for me to walk. By 11:00 I was on my way home. I can honestly say all Staff, Doctors and Nurses were second to none, there is no doubt I would recommend this hospital to anyone who needs surgery or a procedure similar to mine, (5 stars to this Hospital :)
