As my local hospital couldn't carry out a total knee replacement operation within their time limit of 180 days, I was given a voucher and a list of 10 hospitals to choose from. Centro Cirurgico de Coimbra was one of them, and after conducting online research, I contacted them.From my initial contact to post-operative care, the service they have provided has been exceptional. Their communication has been timely and thorough. The pre-op meeting with my surgeon, Dr Pedro Marques, was relaxed and informative, and put my mind at ease.The ward team, including Renato, my physiotherapist, along with the surgical team, were professional, knowledgeable, and empathetic, and I felt confident in their ability and commitment to take care of me.The food was tasty, nutritious, and plentiful, and although I was only discharged a few days ago, the follow-up care has also been outstanding.I highly recommend this hospital to anyone who has the opportunity to use its services.
