I was given a total knee replacement in late November 2023. I would like to say the staff were great from Pauline who did my admission to the anesthetist and the theatre staff who came to take me for my op. I opted for a spinal which went well no problems operation was quick. On the ward the nurses and health care support work who looked after me were fabulous. Especially Giulia, Alexandrea on the day shift and Karen,Lesley and Mandy on the nightshift.Had to stay 2 nights and i was lucky to have the same nurses both days.Not so sure what happened on one of the days as never really seen a lot of staff never even got water when we ran out. Also like to say a big thank you to Evelyn from the physio team. Evelyn you were right when I went home I stayed up the stairs for 2 days. Can I also say a big thank you to Ryan from x-ray who came to take me for my x-ray and brought me back to my bed. He was very helpful helping my get on and of the trolley. All in all it was a good experience staff were great .
