My appointment was smoothly handled with each stage already signposted from registration to x-rays to consultation with consultant (review of hip problem). Letter to confirm follow up appointment arrived following day after appointment. Staff at each stage were polite, helpful and supportive (reception, radiographer, nursing staff and consultant)

1) Poor ongoing follow up
2) Limited information about options
3) Surgery presented as only option for scoliosis (idiopathic)
4)Poor surgery outcome/limited immediate improvement / poor long term benefit
5)Poor long term outcome - hospital unwilling to explore alternatives, constant response to deterioration, there is nothing else they can offer.

Ok, but waiting times are an issue

I have orthotics but the waiting times between getting new support shoes can be 6 or 12 weeks.
The consultant I saw, I was discussing with them the impact of flat feet on my hip. He referred me to physio but he didn't take too much notice when I was trying to explain

Went to see the GP for steroid injections and they said the issue would go away. Eventually I went to the hospital and has physio. It was like a miracle, and I was taught to do some exercises at home which have helped.
much better experience than other hospitals

My daughter was in the teenage cancer trust ward for a hip operation. Excellent facility. Lovely staff. Good food and great provision for parents. A traumatic experience handled really well. Great joined up service with physio after discharge including delivery of equipment. The hydrotherapy and physio that continued after discharge all really good service and friendly staff.
Staff excellent but infection risk

The staff are very kind and work very hard working to achieve a excellent service. The NHS should be proud of these wonderful people.

I heard negative reports about the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in the press following the CQC rating of 'require improvement'. I have nothing but good things to say about the hospital, and was extremely surprised to hear anything negative. I am a regular patient both inpatient and outpatient and I think they are much more efficient than other hospitals that I have dealt with. I think that it’s excellent, right down to the food in the canteen.
The staff are great.
Whenever you see a specialist you get a copy of a letter that shows the recommendations and treatment plan to your GP.
