Very professional at all times and understanding. Gave reassurance all the way through the procedure, when I was unsure what to expect.
The care was exceptional ,everyone was amazing and the after care was brilliant especially the first physiotherapist video when I got home was extremely helpful and put all your worries to rest Mr Jonas was great and answered all my concerns
Very clear on condition. Gave all pros and cons, shared all scan data.
My experience with Sam Jonas and the Nuffield as a whole has been first class.From my first appointment through surgery,after care and review the treatment has been excellent. Thank you. A very satisfied patient.
Sam was incredibly kind,, professional , and reassuring . I was concerned that my recovery was slow but he said that 3 to 6 months was expected so I felt much better after my visit
Mr Jonas explained my knee problems in great detail showing me both X-rays and MRI scan. He also took the time to answer my questions. In a manner I understood.
From point of meeting with Surgeon to Hospital admission and having surgery, the whole procedure was managed fantastically. Smooth, quick and very well received (and grateful of)
Mr. Jonas has given me a full knee replacement. Before the surgery he explained the problem, and possible side effects. In the hospital he explained the procedure again but in more detail and on my final visit to him, he answered all my questions clearly. Thank you to him and all his team for an excellent job.
Mr Jonas has a friendly, professional approach and made every step of the process stress free and positive.
Mr Sam Jonas was very good from start to the end of my treatment
