Great care from Riem Johnson from start to finish. Talked me through the whole process from the start, the risks involved, how the surgery would work and what the recovery times were. After the Operation referred me to a top aftercare physio who specializes in hand care. Extremely happy with how the surgery went and currently in my rehab phase but already feels 100% better and with the small scars healing will only get better in time.
Thank you for your kind words. I am so happy that you have had a good experience and that your recovery is going smoothly.
I was seen today by Riem Johnson at the Fracture and Orthopaedic Clinic at the Royal Sussex Hospital Brighton. Mrs Johnson was highly professional, caring, knowledgeable and kind and took time to explain to me how to proceed with everyday care of my arm/wrist. I was highly impressed with my care and feel strongly that recognition of this quality of care is vital for the health service to survive. The nurse called Jamila also looked after me and she demonstrated excellent people skills as well as care skills. Thank you so much to both
I had both hands treated left Dec 21 and right Sept 22 trapeziectomy and partial trapezoidectomy both performed by Mrs Johnson the first at the spire second at princess royal from my very 1st consultation thru to being discharged this week the care given to me has been unbelievable making sure i was aware of the benefits and risks also ensuring i had after care with hand therapy etc and the difference between being seen initially at the ( private care provider ) Montefiore spire and nhs was 0 i was treated exactly the same in both instances i can't express my gratitude and thanks enough the surgery has / will be life changing thank you so much
Thanks so much for your kind words and I am so glad that the journey of your treatment has been positive throughout. Wishing you all the best. And merry Xmas too!
I found Mrs Johnson kind, compassionate and caring. I felt she really listened to me and I am so grateful my symptoms have been relieved.The surgery took place quickly and she explained clearly what was going to happen. Thank you once more. Just keep doing what you are doing.
