The Elective Orthopaedic Centre

On arrival at the SWLEOC, staff I came into contact with, were welcoming and polite. I extend specific gratitude to my consultant Mr Al - Obaedi, nurse Jayson and student nurse Anna. They were, friendly, reassuring, accommodating, informative, professional and supportive in all areas.

Isabel Branch. I had a partial knee replacement at SWLEOC five months ago and have experienced a truly remarkable recovery. I would like to sincerely thank my consultant surgeon, Mr Al-Dadah, and his team for their exceptional skill, dedication, and care throughout the process. From my very first consultation through to the completion of my treatment, everything was carried out with the highest standards of thoroughness. I am also deeply grateful to the staff in PACU, who were attentive, professional, and reassuring at every stage. This unit is outstanding in every respect. The professionalism, kindness, and efficiency shown by everyone I encountered made what could have been a daunting experience into one of confidence and reassurance. I feel incredibly fortunate to have had my surgery at SWLEOC and could not recommend it highly enough.

I had a total hip replacement on the 6th November carried out by Mr Dinah. The procedure and care from beginning to end was outstanding! Everyone including medical and support staff are exceptional, highly skilled, dedicated and caring. I can’t recommend SWLEOC highly enough. A heartfelt thank you to you all.

Excellent patient care throughout my journey to and following g my total shoulder replacement. Thank you.

SWLEOC is clearly a world class centre, respected by all who have come across it. I can absolutely see why. I cannot fault the care, communication, treatment, etc., which I experienced from all staff, from the porter who kindly wheeled me to my car, the admin staff who acted efficiently and with care and kindness, to the nurses who cared for me after my hip surgery, the anaesthetist and the surgeon who performed my total hip replacement. I was treated throughout with kindness and respect, any questions being answered sympathetically and fully, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this centre to anyone I need of orthopaedic care. I am almost looking forward to having my second hip replacement being carried out at this centre.

Our family have had several good experiences of this facility, I personally have had two rotator cuff repairs 5 years apart. Both were successful and achieved everything I hoped for. The surgical team, anesthesiologist and nursing staff were all professional, informative and considerate. I would be happy to have surgery here again.

Very efficient operation - the staff knew exactly what they, and every one else, was doing. Great team in operation!

Fantastic care I was in the elective orthopaedic centre during lockdown for a total hip replacement, the nurses were very caring and understanding, they took great care of me. Everything was very clean outstanding.

When I attended for my surgery I was anxious but the team where very welcoming and reassuring this gave me confidence in them After my operation the staff on the ward could not have been more professional and caring taking time to explain and involve me in my recovery Thank you all

I had my surgery during COVID so extra care and attention was evident giving me the upmost confidence that me and everyone involved in my care were safe and secure. From the lovely cheerful surgeon Dr Alazzawi putting me at ease before and after the operation to all the staff that cared for me after. There was even a vegan menu with lots of choices that was a relief to see as I was concerned what I would be offered. The only criticism I do have which is a tiny one is that my ward was opposite the nurses station and kitchen area and sometimes the night staff were quite noisy talking loudly and sometimes shouting to each other not considering the patients that were trying to sleep. Apart from that it was a pleasant stay despite the obvious pain which the drugs sorted out.
