Clear explanation of what was going to happen before and after operation which was what I wanted.
Everything was explained and all went very well. Very pleasant and understanding
Overall a very pleasant experience.I was very relieved and grateful that Mr Milligan was able to arrange a prompt follow up after this appointment.
Total left hip replacement. Prompt, professional, friendly service. Would highly recommend Mr Milligan.
Doctor listened to me and responded appropriately. He answered my concerns and reassured me that I could always come back to see him should anything seem to be wrong.
I recently visited Mr Milligans clinic with issues with my knee. He was very friendly and understanding and advised that he would need to see scans which were done there and then. On seeing the scans he informed me that a partial knee replacement was the treatment that would suit me best. He explained very clearly why he felt a partial rather than a full replacement would benefit me. He explained the long term pros and cons and I was very happy when leaving, that I’m going in the right direction to be pain free. It was a pleasure to meet Mr Milligan.
Everything was explained to me very clearly about my knee replacement. He didn’t try to sugarcoat it and said I would be in considerable pain for a few weeks but it would be well worth while in the long term.
I had a full right hip put in . It was carried out with all experiences and very friendly people from beginning to the end.
I had a really good experience Mr Milligan was very professional & though he wud not have realised I was a bit nervous but he put me at ease with his relaxed approach
