Written by a private patient
16th August 2021


Due to the Covid-19 "Lockdown" and waiting over 2 years for a Right Hip Replacement, that an x-ray had shown "Severe Osteoarthritis", I gave up on the NHS. I was in severe pain that even Codeine could not alleviate. One Surgeon exclaimed "You've been like this for 2 years?!" Then he added "I can do you in 6 months" - UNCONSCIONABLE !! As a "Foreign" doctor, he obviously prioritized taking Private Patients - to make more money. That was the final straw for me. I decided that I must go PRIVATE. I needed a Surgeon who could understand my URGENT NEED. After hearing positive reports of Nuffield Health Newcastle Hospital, I went Online to research. I had 14 Orthopaedic Surgeons to choose from. I scored all of them on the Hawkins Scale of Consciousness, a brilliant technique to ascertain the INTEGRITY (i.e. Level of Evolution) of a person (or country, etc.). Of all 14 Orthopaedic Surgeons, Lee Longstaff scored the HIGHEST. There were other deciding factors, but this was the most important one. He also had a shine or brightness in his photograph. Graduating with Honours from Cambridge was a plus. I also calculated that he must be around 50 years old - old enough to be EXPERIENCED but not so old as to be in decline. After making the decision to make an Appointment with Mr. Lee Longstaff, everything went like a charm. I got an appointment in 1 week (rather than waiting 4-1/2 months to see an NHS Doctor). We got along magnificently. The very next day I received a phone call from his Secretary informing me of a surgery date in just 5 weeks. From initial phone call to returning home after the Surgery totalled 6 weeks + 1 day - a miracle in Britain. I sobbed as the 3 Doctors prepared me for my surgery. I said "I can't believe it's finally going to happen. You're my hero." I could not have been more pleased with my entire experience.
