Patient Testimonials

“I was impressed with the care I received at Spire Methley Park Hospital under care of Mr Shetty. I underwent a Knee replacement operation and was quite apprehensive before surgery. The professionalism of surgeon and the nursing staff put me at ease and I now have a pain free knee after years of suffering. I am glad to be back doing the things I love to do including playing golf”
