Mr Lee Longstaff

Written by a private patient at Spire Washington Hospital

After a short period of pain, I recently underwent hip replacement surgery by Mr Lee Longstaff. I would comment that he did a fantastic job, he took the time to explain from the first consultation how the procedure would be done, the recovery period, the do’s and dont’s post op. Even my scar is very need and tidy! I would certainly recommend Mr Longstaff to anyone waiting for a hip replacement.

I am very pleased with the care I received from Mr Longstaff and everyone at the Spire Hospital. Having been in a great deal of pain due to arthritis, and unable to walk very far because I couldn't straighten my leg. Mr Longstaff gave me a full knee replacement which in effect has given me a new lease of life. From the very first consultation Mr Longstaff explained everything, listened to my concerns and answered my questions. Throughout it all the whole experience and the care I received was second to none.

WHAT CAN I SAY? MR LONGSTAFF REPLACED MY DAMAGED LEFT HIP JOINT WITH A NEW ONE WHICH WORKS TO PERFECTION. I WILL BE RETURNING TO HIM HOPEFULLY VERY SOON TO HAVE THE RIGHT HIP JOINT REPLACED AS WELL. HE HAS EXPLAINED THE PROCEDURE TO ME CLEARLY AND I HAVE EVERY CONFIDENCE IN HIS CAPABILITIES. HE HAS GIVEN ME A NEW LEASE OF LIFE AND I CAN NOW WALK WITHOUT PAIN IN MY LEFT HIP AND LEG. LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING RID OF PAIN IN MY RIGHT HIP AS WELL AND EXPERIENCING A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.
