Knee Replacement in France for UK Resident

[Loup-garou]

I had a knee replaced two years ago. I had had the injections into the knee and, subsequently, it was a "clean up" procedure. Unfortunately, the surgeon who did this suffered a heart attack but his son took his place at the hospital (same name so I didn't realise this).

When I saw the new surgeon, we made the appointment directly with his secretary (as I said, same name) he said "when were you thinking of having the operation". My wife said "tomorrow would be nice" and he smiled and took out his diary and said he was on holiday for the next two weeks but what about at the start of the following week.

I was a bit nervous but my wife accepted and so it came to pass. I was in for four days after the operation and had 26 kiné sessions, the first three in bed at home. Apart from the food, I had nothing to complain about.
