  • So grateful to everyone in the Woodland hospital team. All encounters with staff were positive and cheery which made my stay very enjoyable. It was obvious staff really enjoyed their individual job roles, being so personable and kind, making my whole experience comfortable and happy. I would like to mention and thank the reception team in each department for a lovely breezy welcome and help with information and guidance; Mr Menon for his professional diligence and expertise involving my procedure which will change my current way of life; the anaesthetist who ‘got it right’; the theatre team who were all amazingly talented and kept me calm and feeling safe; the porters for quietly ‘being there’; John from the Pharmacy department for his clear explanations regarding my aftercare and for his pleasant manner; Leanne R in the nursing team and all the other nurses who were absolutely super - 10/10! (because of my state of recovery I can’t remember all the names, so apologies!) Thank you also to Paulina and the Physio team for constructive support and advice; the catering team for fresh tasty supplies and for their pleasant service with a smile. Thanks to absolutely everyone involved. I had an amazing time which made undergoing my knee replacement a brilliant experience and wouldn’t hesitate to come back again when I need the other knee replacing 😀
