Read about Terence’s Barlborough hip replacement experience…
“I would recommend Practice Plus Group without a shadow of a doubt,” says Terence Watson, 80. “I was in severe pain and needed a hip replacement on my right side, but I couldn’t get into my local hospital for 18 months. I couldn’t have carried on for that long. A gentleman down the road had been to Barlborough Hospital and said it was very good.
“I would recommend Practice Plus Group without a shadow of a doubt!”

Terence’s hip replacement patient experience in Barlborough
“I was very well treated by everybody” he continued. “I was particularly pleased with how well-mannered and attentive everyone was. I had my hip replacement operation at 11.30am and when I came out of surgery, a meal was waiting for me. I was told that if my blood test looked good and the surgeon was happy with me when he saw me at 5pm I could go home that night, and that’s what happened. It was seamless really.
I felt fine, and have made a very good recovery. I’ve been back for physiotherapy and am a week ahead of schedule in terms of recovery- and I’m 80 years old!
“I was particularly pleased with how well-mannered and attentive everyone was…it was seamless really.”

I’m looking forward to getting back to gardening very soon. I just want to keep moving, keep walking and seeing my six grandchildren who come to visit- they’ll keep me active! I feel very well satisfied with everything at Practice Plus Group Barlborough.”
