"Physio was very helpful and understanding"

About: Telford referral and quality service (TRAQS) The Princess Royal Hospital / Physiotherapy

(as the patient),

I had an appointment with Mr Critchlow, an orthopaedic specialist at the Princess Royal Hospital in November.

He strongly advised I needed two months of physio before having a knee replacement. During January I was informed by letter I would be having the operation in February.

My GP very quickly referred me for physio, stating it was urgent, because of the operation. I was very disappointed that the earliest appointment for physio was early Feb.

Hence I was not able to have two months of the much needed physio I had been waiting since early January.

On a positive note, Louise, who gave me physio, was very helpful and understanding, and also gave me exercises.
