Hip replacement surgery, Plymouth – thanks for making my life whole again

I have just had a total left hip replacement done by Thomas Wudecki. Well what can I say but a great many thanks for making my life whole again. Went in on 28-8-18 and came home 29-8-18 and no pain. I cannot thank all the staff enough from first contact to leaving. Many many thanks

Knee replacement surgery, Plymouth – the whole experience has been positive

I had a full knee replacement on 19th February 2019, that’s two days ago. I came home yesterday, that’s the day after the surgery, and after receiving the very best care and treatment from every single member of staff I came into contact with. The whole experience has been positive and I would not hesitate to recommend Practice Plus Group Hospital, Plymouth (formerly Peninsula NHS Treatment Centre) to anyone looking for excellent treatment and care. I would certainly request any other treatment that I may require in the future to be undertaken there. In fact I will be back next week to fulfil the physiotherapy programme that will ensure that my knee replacement will be as good as it can possibly be. It’s partly thanks to Adam one of the physiotherapists that I was able to be able to come home as soon as I did. Grateful thanks to Mr Wudecki and all concerned.

Hip replacement surgery, Plymouth – highly professional

I very recently had a total left hip replacement and have previously had my right hip replaced here too. The care is second to none and there is an air of calm, friendly, warm efficiency within the hospital. I feel extremely fortunate to have had access to this hospital, to Mr Wudecki and his Team and to the wonderful, caring nursing and physio team. The process from the very beginning to the end was highly professional. My sincere thanks to you all.

Knee surgery, Plymouth – excellent care before, during and after

I was in yesterday to have Arthroscopy, medial meniscus partial resection & abrasion chondroplasty knee! I had the most amazing experience watching the operation on the monitor during surgery. Excellent care before, during and after surgery. I would like to thank consultant surgeon Mr. Tomasz Wudecki and his top top team, Nikki in recovery and Katie for looking after me.

Knee replacement surgery, Plymouth – outstanding service

My mum had a knee replacement carried out by Mr Wudecki on Wednesday and was discharged home on Thursday. Prior to the op, James Potter was absolutely fabulous in going above and beyond. He is such a kind, caring man and an expert at what he does. We are very grateful for all that he did. All theatre staff were brilliant, especially the lovely Assistant Anaesthetist, Emma. My mum couldn’t believe how relaxed she felt before and during the surgery as she was falling asleep. She described it as a really positive, relaxed experience and isn’t worried about having her other knee surgery. The staff on the ward were outstanding: domestic staff, catering staff, HCA’s, Nurses, Physiotherapists, Doctors, Pharmacists…everyone!! They provided a very calm, relaxed atmosphere which is so important when you or someone you love is having surgery. Staff were very attentive and nothing was ever too much trouble. My mum enjoyed the food and there was always plenty on offer. My mum felt so, so well looked after. She was sent home with all of the support she might need, given all of the necessary contact details and informed of the next steps. Shout out to HCA Robyn who was like a lovely ray of sunshine! Practice Plus Group Hospital, Plymouth provided an outstanding service and enabled my mum to have a very positive knee replacement experience. A big, big thank you to Mr Wudecki, and everyone else involved in my mum’s care, we are so grateful for all that you did.
