Share review of Dr David Uncles
I was admitted to Goring Hall Hospital for a total hip replacement and was provided with a number of helpful booklets beforehand to prepare me for the operation. I was given a choice of anaesthesia – general or spinal. I considered the pros and cons of each and was very unsure and anxious about which to choose. Dr Uncles came to see me prior to the operation to discuss the options and any concerns I had. He was kind and patient and reassured me completely about choosing the spinal. It was quite amazing as I felt fully alert on waking from the operation and was even able to have a conversation with Dr Uncles and my surgeon. I had expected to feel drowsy at best and nauseous at worst. Dr Uncles visited me the day after my operation to see how I was and was again kind and concerned. Altogether, it was the best experience I have ever had of anaesthetics and can’t thank Dr Uncles enough for his expertise and personal concern for me.
Thank you for a detailed account of the care you received. I'm glad your recovery was so seemless and quick.
