Total knee replacement

"Total knee replacement"

About: North Devon District Hospital / General surgery

(as the patient),

Care in the new Jubilee Ward, could not have been better. Lovely Ward.

Surgery was excellent and anaesthetist fully informed me of what she needed to do as it was not general anaesthetic, so new to me. Treated as an adult, not a child.

Physios on the ward got me safely standing quickly and encouraged me.

Pleased to get home support from Ward staff, as was necessary with my circumstances. Mob phone app. for exercises to do, different, modern and effective.

I am pleased to hear that you felt reassured after being fully informed of the procedure by the anaesthetist and that the surgery was 'excellent'.
