Our Patient Stories

"I'm back walking after one week – I'm delighted I made the call"

Erin Kelleher

Dr. Evaristo Castedo and Dr. Paloma Martinez even checked on me after surgery, while I was in the hospital and when I got home he texted me a few times to see how I was doing. That’s amazing care.

My consultant, Dr. Muñoz, was not only a brilliant surgeon — he was a truly kind person. He explained everything, reassured me before surgery, and made sure I was doing well afterward too

"Now that I've got my knee surgery done I’m looking forward to getting back to the mountains. I’ve my eye on the Sugarloaf next. It’s a bit of a climb, but I’ll start small and build back up. I just want to be active again."

If I’d listened to the doubts or kept waiting for the system at home, I’d still be limping around in pain. Now I’m looking forward to walking normally again, maybe even getting back into training.

"I cannot describe how well we were treated; it was second to none. The 2 weeks I was there with my Mam we made friends for life. We all went through the same journey and having the support and friendly faces made the journey so much easier."
