  • Just found StrongBody AI — pretty handy for wellness providers. It supports international payments + translations, so working with overseas clients is easier. They gave me a code for 3 months of free Shop access (normally paid). Just Google StrongBody AI and use ZAKFREE when signing up.

  • Wow what an amazing experience. I just had surgery with Prof Drew and I couldn’t have been looked after better from the start. Steve Ellis really put me at ease when I was admitted, great humorous guy. All the nurses were fantastic and couldn’t have done more for me. I want to give a special mention to Lisa who cared for me all night. She was so attentive when I was sick and made me the best cup of tea in the morning. My anaesthetist and his assistant were so reassuring as I had never been put to sleep before. I had a private room and nothing was too much trouble. I wasn’t rushed to leave the following day. I truly felt like I was in the best place with the best surgeon and team. Thank you Duchy. ❤️

  • My consultant, mr ertimi was first class and a true gent. I cannot praise him enough. All others, and I mean everybody were of the highest standard with kindness beyond the norm. I leaked blood all over my bathroom floor, this was cleaned in minutes by a delightful cleaning lady. If you have to use a hospital this is the one. It is worth needing treatment just to use this superb hospital. Edward tindale 21/01/2026

  • Just had a hip replacement operation at Woodthorpe Hospital and can't thank the team there enough for the excellent care, support and kindness they all showed me. Mr Nitim Badhes team were all amazing including the anaesthetist and theatre staff, all the nurses, physio's and everyone including the catering staff and receptionist. Particular thanks to Raymond for his dedicated care and support at all times. Also Kelly and all the other ward staff who's names regretfully I can't remember. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Woodthorpe Hospital for anyone needing similar surgery. Thank you again to an exceptional team for all your hard work and dedication.

  • I had my first hip replacement in April 2025 followed by the second hip 6 months later as an NHS patient. The experience was exceptional, the staff were so attentive and very caring. All went very smoothly and I would highly recommend any stay at this hospital. I recently heard rumours that the NHS would be cutting back on outsourcing to private hospitals and I am so grateful I had the opportunity.

  • I've had total knee replacements in both knees over a six month period at Woodthorpe Hospital. From initial consultations through to discharge, the care was outstanding, from everyone involved, surgeon, anaesthetist, theatre staff and ward personnel. If I ever need a hip replacement I'll definitely be back!
