"Only downside was wrong painkillers"

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

(as the patient),

I had to have a total knee replacement and because ward 11 was closed I had to go into the private ward (Apley ward within the Princess Royal) and the only downside I wasn’t given the right painkillers and was in agony until I asked to see a doctor in the middle of the night of the day following the op.
