Mr Philip Heaton

Written by a NHS patient at Pilgrim Hospital

Following an ACL and meniscus cartilage tear, I anticipated knee surgery and was sceptical when Mr Heaton recommended 6 months of physio before further review. Like many patients, I deferred to Dr Google and when Mr Heaton explained that the Western European approach to this condition differs from that in Australasia, I thought that this might be influenced by NHS resource limitations. Moving 6 months on, I am delighted to have been proved wrong. My rehabilitation has been extremely successful without the need for invasive surgery, and whilst my knee will never be as strong as it was I have a robust and sustainable way forward to maintain my health and agility. Whilst Mr Heaton cautioned that I should expect knee surgery at some point in the future, he supported my optimism that this might be 10 years away. Mr Heaton and his extended team all provided outstanding care and great advice. Thank you.

I was very impressed with Mr Heaton who was caring and understanding at every stage of my treatment My operation went very well and my recovery has been good. My experience of Grantham hospital was great with all the staff with whom I had contact being helpful and caring. I would have no hesitation in recommending both Mr Heaton and the hospital nursing team. My thanks to all concerned.
