"Referred to Grantham and district hospital for knee pain"

About: Grantham & District Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as a service user),

I have been having knee pain for the last three years. Due to the nature of my work and my age, I would like to avoid a knee replacement for as long as possible. I've seen a few specialists within the NHS as well as privately. It was to my surprise when I came across Mr Lee in Grantham. I decided to get my GP to refer for Mr Lee in Grantham despite the three hours driving distance. 

I met Mr Lee in clinic 2 weeks ago in Grantham and District Hospital, it was an excellent experience. Parking was easy, the nurses in clinic were very friendly and even the receptionist was helpful. It was an unusual environment that I certainly did not expect from the NHS. 

Mr Lee explained to me about my knee condition in a way that was very easy to understand. You can see the passion and enthusiasm within the clinic and I am very happy with the treatment option we decided. 

I am due to go back for my follow up appointment in June, am looking forward to visiting this great Hospital again.
