I had a hip replacement performed by Mr Cope at Renacres Hospital. My care as an outpatient and inpatient was excellent. Mr Cope always made you feel at ease, his professionalism and caring attitude was brilliant. Despite his busy schedule he never rushed consultations and was always courteous. He is a credit to his profession and I will be forever grateful. Thank you Mr Cope, I was very privileged to be an NHS patient in your care.

Having been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis, I had been struggling with severe knee pain & difficulty walking for many years, following a visit to my GP, I was very fortunate to be refered to Mr Cope at Renacres with the NHS. Mr Cope did a full knee replacement, I was up & about walking soon after the operation & was home a couple of days later. Recovery from the operation went very smoothly & I regained the mobility that I had lost a long time ago. My other knee was in a similar poor condition & following another referral, I was again fortunate to have Mr Cope as my Consultant - I had another full knee replacement with exactly the same top quality outcome for which I am extremely grateful. Thank you Mr Cope for the superb care that I received from you & your team at Renacres.

I had a total knee replacement by Mr. cope on 4th February 2021. I had been suffering with a painful knee that I couldn’t straighten for a number of years . I am now 7 weeks after surgery and doing very well, Physiotherapy exercises are extremely important to a good outcome. Mr. Cope listened to all my questions about the surgery and explained the procedure and what to expect in the weeks and months to follow. I showed interest in the mechanics of the joint, Mr. Cope showed me the x-ray images and thoroughly explained each component of the joint. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.

After struggling with hip pain for some time I plucked up courage to go ahead with a hip replacement. I met Mr Cope at Renacres Hospital and felt very confident that he would be the right surgeon for me. ( He had been recommended to my by a friend ) . The operation was planned for April 2020 but unfortunately the Covid lockdown meant that my operation was delayed until July. The hospital was committed to assist the NHS and no operations were being performed. As soon as it was possible Mr Cope arranged for my admission and my operation was performed a few hours later. I had spinal anaesthesia and sedation. I didn’t feel any pain or hear any disturbing noises! The care I received by the nursing team was excellent and I was walking around the room 15 hours later helped by a physiotherapist. An X ray showed the prosthesis was in a perfect position and I was discharged after 3 days with pain medication and exercise instructions. I needed mild pain relief for a couple of weeks but I was amazed that I felt so well. The nagging debilitating pain of osteoarthritis had gone completely. I have now had two follow up appointments with Mr Cope and I feel delighted that my hip replacement has been so successful. Mr Cope is a talented surgeon and he cares about his patients . I have no hesitation in recommending him to others who need a new hip.
