"Hip replacement orthopaedic ward room 2."

About: Pontefract General Infirmary / General surgery

I was so nervous coming in for my hip replacement as I had bad experience in another hospital last time.

These guys in pontefract hospital treated me like there my family. Compassionate sensitive good listener and there expertise was was the best I ever had.

I will always hold special place for the Staff nurse as she helped me at my lowest. Cheerful memeber of staff was always singing but professional. There are lots more. I can’t praise these guys enough.

The rooms were spotless I had room 2 my own cubical it was like been in private hospital. They can’t do enough for you.

The surgeon did my hip as it was a mess. So grateful to him. I have suffered a long time. The ward is small which is better as it’s more personal.

Cheap parking , easy parking, near town , perfect place. I just wish there was more places like Pontefract hospital. and all their staff.

I beg you please don’t privatise this hospital everyone has a rights to experience the best care when they are ill.

Keep in the NHS ????
