"I honestly feel like I've got my life back"

About: North Devon District Hospital / Theatres North Devon District Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

I had my left knee replacement operation last year and I have now had my right knee done on Jubilee ward. Everything was superb and I cant speak highly enough of all the staff, surgeon and care staff.

I have since made a complete recovery and I was told that my case was a complex knee challenge so to have made such progress feels amazing.

I honestly feel like I've got my life back.

Thank you to Dr Griffiths-Jones, outstanding nurse Jess, also thanks to Johanis, recovery nurse Jodie, Mimi, Maria and HCA Roz.
