Mr Jonathan White

Written by a NHS patient at Peterborough City Hospital

From the first consult at PCH, Mr White was able to assure me that not only was my operation necessary, but that all would go well. I’d had a bad experience some years earlier & was dreading going through it all again Mr White came to see me in my room at Hinchingbrook hospital before my operation, in the anaesthetic room & in recovery to let me know it had gone well. Recovery has been far better than I imagined it would be & my wound has healed beautifully. I hope I won’t need any further operations, but if any of my family or friends required orthopaedic surgery, I would definitely tell them if it’s possible to ask for Mr White. Some consultants don’t feel the need to listen to their patients, no need to talk to them either. Ward round consists of asking the ward sister accompanying them how the patient is doing. Mr White listened, explained & told me he would give me a nice new hip. That’s exactly what he did & I’m extremely grateful.

At 83 years old I had an unfortunate fall and smashed the perfectly good hip joint that had been replaced six years earlier. Hip replacement is a "standard" procedure, Repairs are a different matter! Recovery is taking longer that I'd like, but I'm up and about and re-engaging with my hobbies and life thanks to the skill and courage of Mr White who performed a difficult repair

Mr White was my surgeon when I had my leg operated on ( Tibial plateau fracture) on 10/2/23. Mr white was excellent and the staff at Peterborough City Hospital. Communication was second to none and I was reassured throughout including the after care. I am so grateful for all the care and advice I was given and the professionalism of all staff involved in my care which was followed on by outpatients.Because of my heart condition I was given an epidural. I was very anxious about the procedure, the anaesthetist and staff were very reassuring and I felt very at ease and managed to sleep the last hour!!

From my initial consultation Mr White was very informative, explaining the options required for my surgery and possible outcomes. His manner was friendly, and I did not feel rushed into making decisions. I felt confident at all times that he was the right surgeon for my operation, from initial consultation, during preparation for my operation and post surgery and felt comfortable asking the same questions over, which he was happy to answer numerous times. I would like to have received more information regarding the actual procedure, by attending a pre-op clinic as I feel this may have helped manage my expectations of how I would be feeling in the first few days after surgery. I also feel that being discharged on the same days as surgery may have been too soon, as although I felt well enough to leave, I was also heavily medicated and feel there were questions I probably would have asked the nursing staff the following day which would have supported my recovery and both mine and my husband's understanding of what was to be expected with regards to my pain and mobility. However, that being said, the follow up care has also been excellent with a direct line to the Arthroplasty Nurse Practitioners at PCH.

Mr White is everything I want from a doctor i.e. open-friendly-caring-informative and highly skilled. Therefore I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone.
