About: Golden Jubilee National Hospital / Orthopaedics Royal Alexandra Hospital (Paisley)

(as the patient),

Hi I told I needed an operation on my right leg because I have torn my ALC. My knee was locked for weeks and was told I couldn't get the operation until I could straighten my knee, I was then told that I had to do physio until my knee was straight it took 4 weeks to straighten my knee and I am still waiting 4 weeks later to hear back about the operation and I am still doing physio at this moment. It is now 10 weeks on and I am still waiting on word for my operation I am in a lot of pain and don't understand why I have heard nothing back about the operation I know it will not repair it's self and I have been trying to get in contact with the consultant and his secretary but still no answer.
