the time you need to book the surgery is NOT very long at all, maybe 2 weeks in advance will do, for me, it was really more about the demand of the hospital's operation theatre more than anything.

you however, must expect a lengthy rehab afterwards though.
as all doctors are telling me now, the rehab, is more important than the surgery afterwards.

GOOD LUCK.
Hi Guys,

Just a quick questions for the patients that have been managed with conservative treatment or for the physios here which have had patients referred from Consultants: what kind of braces were you given initially ( if advised on any). Did you have a brace with an extension lock ( limited into straightening your knee) or just a hinged one, or none at all?

Thank you in advance for your answers.
