Knee operation

[DONNA1458]

My partner had his left knee operated on many years ago for his cruciate ligament done. Now his right knee is going what is the waiting list like now?

[ubasses]

really depends on the hospital, he should receive a choice with the waiting times detailed

That would depend on which area of the UK you live in.
