Knee pain from few years don't help me and not...

"Knee pain from few years don't help me and not..."

About: University Hospital Lewisham / Trauma and orthopaedics

knee pain from 2012 when I was hospital- gave me oxygen, I was filling like somebody cut my legs upper knee. From that time I have a legs pain.

I came to Lewisham hospital. Doctor in my second appointment told me - I have artritis but very small. My legs pain is bigger like my 81 years mother pain.

Doctor don't do any examination of veins and arteries to find what is it. I kan't walk and I west one year time in Lewisham hospital. Orthopedic doctor told me to go to my GP te get pain medicine from my doctor.

This is very bad way how doctor treat me. I know that my condition is very bad specially I told him about my illness I have.I think it was affected my veins and arteries and because of that I can't walk and have a big pain.

I am very upset about that.

When my child birth I had very bad experience too.

I'm very kindly not recommended this hospital.
