G'day, I had a total left knee replacement performed by Professor Michael Niel at St. Vincent's Private Hospital on April 24th. I spent 5 days there and then was transferred to Wolper on a gurney. Nine days later I walked out with the assistance of a stick. I got home and was able to climb the 16 steps up to our second floor where our bedroom and bathroom are located. I followed up with outpatient physio for four weeks and as of today (August 17th.) the knee is a bit stiff, however, there's NO pain. I continue to do physio at home. My right knee will require replacement and I can assure you that it will be done by Professor Niel at St. Vincent's Private and rehab / physio will be at Wolper!

I had a Total Knee Replacement @ St V's Private end April 2013.
My surgeon advised two Rehab Hospitals in the eastern suburbs.

I live in the northern beaches area but my son's home is in the eastern suburbs.

My local very experienced Physiotherapist who treated me prior to surgery for 2 months twice weekly
expressed Wolper Jewish Hospital was excellent. The Physio with her Master's Degree had much experience years ago to do with rehabilitation & she knew my surgeon.

Wolper Jewish hospital's staff & treatment was that of excellence. Even "boot camp" became bearable & it had to be. The staff most generally were so understanding, efficient & many brightened my two weeks as an inpatient. Whilst staying at my son's home for a further 4 weeks following my discharge I returned twice weekly for Physio & Hydrotherapy.

I would have done an extra few weeks as an outpatient but time I went home to my house with
multiple stairs. As I had a post operative Deep Vein Thrombosis @ St Vincent's Private Hospital this meant additional treatment for 6 weeks. The Rehab doctor @ Wolper was marvellous, a happy lovely young women such a joy to be treated by her. The Physiotherapists & RN in that department gave the highest standard of care & treatment also.

As I was originally a Registered General Nurse, Midwife, Occupational Health Nurse, Occupational Health & Safety & Rehabilitation Manager (I have an post graduate Degree from University) & with a long professional career before retirement at 49 years of age, having worked for five large manufacturing companies, ending my career as NSW & ACT OH& S & Rehab Advisor to one of the largest Australian banks before I left to live in Cambs. UK for many years I think I can adequately recommend the care given to me @ Wolper.

I thank all those who cared for me at Wolper Jewish Hospital.
