Having detached by quadriceps tendon, I was admitted to Lister ward. So many people saw me between my mission and my operation, but I could see that it was very joined up, and that people were making an enormous efforts to ensure that the care given was off highest quality. Despite being rushed off their feet, staff were pleasant, and very caring. Everything was well explained, and I was given many opportunities to ask questions. Post operative care - I have attended the first appointment and the consultant was very helpful and patient. The only (very minor) suggestion is - please give printed instructions on adjusting the leg brace to patients prior to leaving the hospital. My treatment was a classic example of the NHS at it's very best.
"Superb trauma care"
