"This was my second knee replacement operation carried out at Shirley Oaks Hospital and the level of care and general experience was just as high as the first. All the team from Mr Jig Patel through to the nursing staff, physio's reception staff, catering staff, cleaners and porters were all excellent. They showed true care and interest in me and my procedure from start to finish and were thoroughly professional, polite and caring."
