About: Barlborough NHS Treatment Centre

I attended Barlborough on 27/12/18 for a total right knee replacement, I had had good reports about the center, this was my main reason for choosing it, On arrival I was greeted by a friendly night porter (6am), then collected by one of the night staff off the ward, I went down for surgery at 9:30 and out by 11:15, I seem to have had some sort of reaction to the medication, so for the rest of the day I could not keep anything down, I was overwhelmed by the care I got from all the staff. After a slight restless night I was fine the next day up walking about and doing physio exercises. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were excellent and plenty of choice. Third day up and washed myself, more physio and cleared for discharge. I cannot give enough praise the care and attention I received whilst at Barlborough.

Dear Julian,

Thank you for your feedback on the NHS Choices website.

Here at Barlborough we strive to give our patients the best possible care whilst they are staying with us and it seems we succeeded.

I'm sorry to hear you weren't well following your surgery, occasionally we have patients who react to their medication but as in your case, we soon had this under control and you were feeling fit and well again.

We all hope you are making a quick recovery from your knee replacement and you know where we are if you need us again.

With kind regards, Mandy J Miller - PA to Steve Booker, Hospital Director and Marco La Malfa, Medical Director.
