On entry in the hHospital, i was greeted by a male volunteer who gave clear directions to where i should go and a jovial attitude with a big smile. Whilst making my way slowly to the department i was assigned to and while admiring the artwork in the corridor, i was approached by a female member of staff who kindly asked me if i was looking at the signs because i seemed lost. As i said i was admiring the artwork, after i told her where i was going, she gave me directions also. It is nice to see that there are still people around that treat you with respect and dignity.
I’ve had my follow up appointment yesterday after having 2 spinal surgeries 10 and 11 weeks ago. Mr Haleem was very pleased with the X-rays and again he explained every little step from my operations. I felt so good and looked after again when I left the hospital yesterday. Mr Haleem is so dedicated and he’s a doctor I totally trust and so pleased he was my surgeon and also a big thank you to his team. Elke Hooper
Everything about this hospital was good apart from a communication problem which occurred between my GP practice and the hospital in the first instance. I believe that the problem lies in the system rather than either institution. Both were keen to do their best but the communication system failed to involve the patient (me) and ended up with me not having an MRI scan when I had a serious issue in my back and only being seen for the first time 7 months later. Had I been put in contact with the hospital directly (as would happen if I was making an appointment for an Xray for example) this problem would not have occurred.
Several sets of emails (written by my Dr and the Hosp) about this situation should be on record somewhere.
Care by all staff was exceptional, food good.
Always felt safe .
I’ve stayed at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Northfield Birmingham from 22nd Feb til 6th March had 2 spinal surgeries and have to say they’re all amazing here. I’ve been treated with respect and every one was so caring. My surgeon Mr Haleem is outstanding, he visited me every single day during my stay sometimes even twice and he made several phone calls to my husband to give him updates, he’s simply amazing and so dedicated. Now I’m looking forward getting a speedy recovery at home
Thank s again Mr Haleem, Mr P Rehousek, Orlam and all the nurses in intensive care and ward 4 who looked after me during my stay. Elke Hooper

As a nurse myself, I appreciated all the wonderful care given to me during my brief stay.
If I ever need orthopaedic Surgery again, I will be heading up to the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Birmingham.

excellent service run by the whole hospital-well done
I felt safe ,confident and in good care at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital. I felt I was treated as an individual with my own circumstances and needs , and respected at all times. Excellent communication between myself and staff looking after me. Highly recommend this hospital
I have visited Northfields Orthopaedic Hospital twice for appointments with my Mum. Every member of staff we met was cheerful and helpful. It was clean and efficient-we were seen on time on both occasions. Mum’s care has been excellent in every department; X-ray, scanning, consultant clinic and pre op. The NHS at it’s best!! Many thanks to all, we happily recommend you.
