I had full hip replacement in 2024 and a full knee replacement a year later in 2025. Both were carried out by Dr Alistair Scott Parker and I cannot give enough praise to Dr Parker & the entire Team at Practice Plus Group, Southampton. Excellent care during and post op. Warm and caring Anaesthetists Geoff & Steve. I will always be so grateful to Dr Parker for changing my life twice over. Follow the expert’s advice and you will make a full recovery. Rehab is key & listen to your body.

My mother recently underwent her second total knee replacement surgery at Practice Plus Group, both performed by Mr Dehne.

The care she received was professional and reassuring. Mr Dehne’s obvious expertise and clear communication put her at ease and the nursing staff, doctors and physios were all so kind and always willing to help.

She was a little unwell after the operation and had to stay an extra night. A special thank you to the night shift nurses Jill and Allison. Her progress was closely monitored and pain managed as well as possible. Nothing was too much trouble. We’re extremely grateful for the care received.

The experience with PPG and Mr Dehne has been very positive – from the warm welcome on reception (Jackie is fabulous) though to being wheeled out to the car to go home (thank you Jordan), we are grateful for the care and compassion shown throughout both surgeries and look forward to a much better quality of life that two new knees will bring.

I couldn’t believe how quick it was. The surgeon [Adam Rozycki] was fantastic, and the scars are barely noticeable.

Jeevan was very informative from the offset. He explained everything that he would be doing during surgery. He is also very conscientious.

5* hospital. The whole experience at Practice Plus Group Birmingham has been amazing. The care I received from every member of staff during my stay when having a total knee replacement was outstanding and would recommend this hospital to anyone.

I just wanted to say a huge ‘Thank you’ [to Dr Miriam and her colleague] for all your tender care you bestowed on me [knee op] during my stay in hospital. I had never received such kindness. You were both amazing.

I had the pleasure of having my first partial knee replacement performed my Mr Miller on Wednesday. A very positive experience. I am due to have second one done as soon as is possible. I was a little anxious about the op but have no qualms about having the next one done. Everyone was brilliant, and I mean, everyone. I was taken care of, fed well and given great advice. I know I am only a couple of days post op but I am able to move about far easier than expected. Thank you for the experience.

10 stars. Arrived 1st October, terrified, had left knee replacement on the 2nd. Courtesy of Mr Roman Miller & his amazing team. I was the “drama queen!” In room no4. Today a week later, I’ve made my own breakfast, coffee’s and carried them, had a shower, dressed by myself, tidied up a bit and I’ve put the washing on. Can’t thank you all enough, even miss some of you. Don’t know why you all made such a fuss. Swelling and bruising going down already. I apologise as I can’t remember all your names but I want to thank you all for caring enough to listen to me and make time for me, great team you have there. Julie xxxxx

I had a left total knee replacement on 10/07/24 patient would like to thank everyone involved in the surgery. Everyone was amazing, the attention and care given was outstanding. From reception onwards, I would like to thank the surgeon Waqar Jan and the nurses on the ward. Nothing was too much trouble for them, they’re a credit to the hospital.

I had a left total knee replacement on 06/03/24 and would like to express my gratitude to the wonderful surgeon Waqar Jan and his amazing team after having my knee replacement. I am delighted with the results, the care I received was first class from everyone. Thank you to everyone

I had a left total knee replacement on 15/04/24 and would like to say thank you for the treatment I received at your lovely hospital. I had been unable to walk without crutches for 14 months, I’m now pain free. My surgeon, Waqar Jan, & the team have given me my life back. I was able to walk my daughter down the aisle at her wedding 4 1/2 weeks after the operation and would like to thank everyone for making this a reality. I’d also like to thank the nurses & staff on the ward who were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble.

Amazing first class service from all the team at Barlborough hospital. I had Total Knee Replacement on my left knee last February (2017) and can’t thank everyone enough and now awaiting appointment date to have Total Knee Replacement on my right knee. Mr Springer was and is the surgeon to do both my knees and is brilliant.

It’s been just over a year since I had a total knee replacement at the Barlborough centre. Mr Springer was my surgeon, what a difference it’s made to my life. I actually feel I’ve got my life back. Can highly recommend Barlborough centre for professional care with added TLC.

Can not speak too highly of all at Barlborough Treatment Centre. Thank goodness for such talented people as Mr Springer, I was in severe pain before he did my total knee replacement.

He truly is a great surgeon cannot praise him enough or thank him enough for the surgery on my knee, thank you Mr Dehne xx

I had a left total knee replacement on 03rd May 2024. I would like to thank the surgeon, Waqar Jan, and all the staff at the hospital who have been so kind. I was impressed with everything at the hospital. I would like to thank especially the SP team for their lovely card & Lavender seeds. My goal is to make my sisters 90th Birthday in Surrey which I’m really looking forward to with the help of physio and doing my exercises.

I had total knee replacement, I couldn’t have got better treatment anywhere else Mr Ahad and his team are the best. I’m walking again thanks to them it’s the best.

I had a knee replacement. What can I say about the people that work there. They were all brilliant, nothing was to much trouble, from the catering staff to Mr Brown the surgeon. I would recommend to have your surgery here. It’s more like being at home then in hospital.

Had TKR in April. Am now in week 7 and everything seems to be going really well. I saw Mr James Brown this week and he said he was happy with the way it’s going. The whole experience has been great from the pre op assessment, the in patient experience and the follow up. The information was thorough, professional and relaxed. Everyone involved made me feel safe and well looked after. I couldn’t rate them higher. Thank you everyone.

I came here yesterday for an arthroscopy operation. I found the whole procedure from beginning to end superb. Everything was spotless it is a modern building. I found every member of staff very friendly and efficient. Mr Springer explained everything to me putting me at ease. Thank you all for looking after me so well.

I’d like to say thanks to all the team at Barlborough hospital on behalf of my father, who had a complex knee replacement operation this week. From the initial assessment right through to the aftercare, the staff were exceptional. Everything was explained very well prior to the operation by lead orthopaedic surgeon – Mr Lovasz. Special thanks in particular to Mandy Miller for all her hard work and communication behind the scenes. This hospital is 10/10 in quality and it shows throughout!

Absolutely brilliant experience for my wife who recently underwent knee replacement surgery. From diagnosis to surgery and nursing care, the staff have been exceptional throughout

Just had a right knee replacement. The nurses are amazing. 20 out of 10. Everyone very helpful, patient and kind!

Had a knee replacement and can’t praise this place enough. Was made to feel welcome from the time I entered to the time I left. Nurses and surgeons were brilliant would certainly recommend.

Having a recent full knee replacement, I found the facilities, quality of care and staff exceptional. They all made you feel welcome and the treatment was more than I could wish for. Even down to the staff who made you feel at home. My anxieties were soon passing. The hygiene was excellent and the food, well I may have put on a little. All very fresh and too tasty for me to refuse. I’m so glad I came here and not Nuffield or Derriford. Even had a follow up call once home to check I was OK. Excellent.

Just returned home from a full knee replacement surgery done by consultant Tomasz Wudeki and his surgical team, who were all wonderful people. I would also like to thank all the other care staff, every single person that I came across were very kind and friendly, they obviously love their job. I can’t find the words to describe how grateful I am to every person at practice plus

I can honestly say from start to finish all the team were amazing. My operation had to be cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances, but the surgeon and team made sure I was dealt with the very next morning. They were caring, considerate and above all else friendly.

I had a knee replacement a few days ago and I cannot praise the staff here too highly. From the cleaners to the surgeons everyone treated me with respect and kindness. Every stage of my procedure was explained carefully to me and they made sure I understood it all. The lady that cooked and delivered food was a joy and the food was excellent and presented in a way that made you want to eat it. I am unable to give a name of someone who stood out as every single person was excellent. I was in over a weekend so the staff changed every day but this made no difference at all to my care. This centre should be used as an example to the rest of the NHS as to how it should be done. My sincere thanks to them all.

I’ve had three procedures here now, two hip replacements and, on 03/05, my second knee replacement operation. I cannot fault my treatment at any point during my stay. The nursing team on Kingfisher Ward, both day and night, were superb. Very professional, very respectful and had a great sense of humour which put everyone at ease. The consultant surgeon, Mr Fabula, along with his very slick team, was awesome and did an amazing job as always. After about 30-40 minutes in recovery I was back on the ward where coffee/tea and toast was provided within minutes of arriving! Surgery is rarely fun, but the Kingfisher Ward Team made me feel absolutely as best as I could under the circumstances. The following day, the Physio Team were in and quickly assessed that I could use my crutches and do stairs, so after x-rays and a quick blood test, it was back home. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Kingfisher Ward, the Kitchen and Physio Teams for taking the best care of me during my stay, and especially to Mr Fabula, who has now done three of my four joint replacements, for carrying out another top-quality surgical procedure. Thank you all.

Had a knee operation on the 3rd May, at the Kingfisher Ward, the nurses and all staff and first class surgeon were all great made you feel very relaxed and you didn’t have to ask for anything as they were all spot on. This has to be one of the best hospitals I have been to, and the food was great. Thank you once again.

I had my left knee replacement done, the whole team were phenomenal, from the nurses, kitchen staff, cleaners, porters. Absolutely loved how they all come in to introduce themselves with great big smiles on their faces. My anxiety disappeared and I felt in very safe hands as soon as I got there. I’m more confident now to go back for my right knee replacement in the near future, keep up the great work everyone, once again thank you all x

I had a full knee replacement on Tuesday and I couldn’t praise this unit enough. The nurses and catering staff were very friendly. The nurses also explained everything that was going to happen with my operation and answered any of my concerns. The doctor and anaesthetist also explained to me all about what they were going to do and checked that I was happy before they proceeded. After my operation the nurses were there to help with all my needs. This unit is covid/disease secure so no visitors are allowed but you can take in your mobile phone or tablet and the Wi-Fi is free.

A lovely place had a knee replacement all staff so friendly and caring great surgeon Mr Toth thank you for making my stay so good

Thanks for performing total knee replacement on me. Due to your excellent skills I am improving daily and leading an active life once again!

I was terrified that surgery would stop me working or riding, but it’s done the opposite – it’s given me a new lease of life. I met orthopaedic consultant Mr Andrew Flood, at Practice Plus Group Hospital, Southampton for a consultation and he was absolutely fantastic. Looking back, I wish I’d had my knee surgery years ago. I’m incredibly grateful to my consultants Mr Andrew Flood, and Mr Graham Hill, and the team. If talking about my experience helps just one person, I’ll be happy.

I had a Partial Knee Replace at this hospital on the NHS. From start to finish my treatment by all was amazing. I cannot praise the care I had enough. The nurses are so friendly and caring. The hospital was very clean. A good choice of food. Highly recommend.

I recently had a total knee replacement operation at Shepton Mallet hospital, and there are not enough words to describe what an amazing place it is.
Everyone I came into contact with from the beginning of my referral has been so positive. So much care and compassion, I cannot thank you all enough you are all angels.

This was my 2nd time as an inpatient at Barlborough for knee replacement surgery and in my opinion you couldn’t have this surgery at a better place. It is truly outstanding.

I had a knee replacement in May 2022. I have to say that all of the staff from the consultant, the nursing staff and the entire team were absolutely wonderful.

October 2020 I had total knee replacement, NHS referral. My experience was excellent…everyone was caring, listening and very professional.
