Mr Wilson was very informative, the team at the clinic were great and the follow up to knee surgery has been seamless. I can’t thank Mr Wilson enough.
I recently stayed in Rosshall for an operation. I want to thank Mr William Wilison I can't recommend them enough. He was fantastic and provided me with me with excellent care. The nurses during my stay were excellent as were the physios. Catering staff and domestics provided excellent services also.
Mr Wilson’s clear snd confident advice and guidance, along with matter of fact approach, gave me complete confidence to make the decision to go ahead with the now recent partial knee replacement surgery. As with my other knee 18 months ago, I’m immediately feeling the huge benefit and after less than 8 weeks, I’m already back playing golf. William Wilson has actually surpassed my expectations here, so thank you.
Reasuring and good to know I can contact if I feel I need to
Had excellent consultations and conversations relating to my diagnosis and prognosis. Fully informed on proceedure and accommodated dte of proceedure.
I had knee surgery with Mr William Wilson after previously having ACL surgery, and the difference has been incredible. Before the operation I could barely manage an hour on my motorcycle before my knee became painful and uncomfortable. Mr Wilson repaired the damaged ligament and added extra support to strengthen and stabilise my knee. The result has been better than I could have hoped for. I can now spend a full day riding with no problems at all and my knee feels strong and stable. It has genuinely given me back something I thought I might have to give up. I can’t thank Mr Wilson enough for his skill, care and the difference he has made to my quality of life. I would highly recommend him.
Communication of information from surgeon to the MSK physio department excellent. Thank you
The experience was very good, all information was explained well and I always knew what the next steps were throughout the process.
