I attended Otley minor surgeries 5 days after dislocating my knee and being sent away from Bradford royal infirmary without an xray, any form of support or any advice, not even a follow up appointment. I left Bradford on the day of my injury feeling confused and still in pain, struggling to walk and feeling like my knee might just dislocate at any moment. I decided to come to Otley for a second opinion and was amazed at the service I received, I was given a full examination followed by an xray which revealed I did in fact have a problem caused by the dislocation and it was at high risk of dislocating again with the slightest movement! I was fitted with a splint, given crutches and an appointment made to see an orthopaedic specialist...I was in the hospital just over an hour and left feeling relieved and much more comfortable!! Thank you
