Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital(RNOH)
About the Hospital
​
In August 1905, the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital (formed in 1840 and located in Hanover Square) and the National Orthopaedic Hospital (founded in 1836 and located on Great Portland Street) merged to form the hospital. In 1907, the City Orthopaedic Hospital (established in 1851 and located in Hatton Garden) became a part of the merger.
Approximately 20% of orthopaedic surgeons in the United Kingdom undertake training at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH), making it the major teaching centre in the country.
The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust is the biggest of the country's five specialised orthopaedic hospitals, with the highest share of sophisticated tertiary work those regional hospitals cannot perform. In addition to orthopaedic medicine and specialised rehabilitation, chronic back pain patients are treated for acute spinal injuries, bone tumours, and complex joint reconstruction.

The people outside the UK believe that the capital's transport system is one of the safest and most efficient public transport networks in the world. The Underground and the ever-cheerful London cabbie come in for particularly high praise.
Food & Drinks
London's food doesn't come any more traditional - or tasty - than good old pie and mash. The Londoners particularly love to have tea a lot.
Fish and chips are a delicious, fried dish that consists of batter-coated, fried fish and chips. This delightful yet straightforward meal originated in England and has become one of the most famous London foods. It is best served hot and is eaten as a main course – but you can find it as a take-away snack from food stalls around London.
The English Breakfast is one of the best London foods, and many cafes and pubs serve it at any time of the day.
The city has numerous eateries, restaurants and pubs that you find in every corner serving multiple cuisines from Mexican tortillas, Italian pastas, Indian kebabs, Chinese dishes to tasty Japanese sushi. Almost every street in the city has cafes and pubs that exuberates anyone and everyone.

Acceptance

The society of London is a multicultural society and the people are welcoming of every culture and creed.
The level of politeness among British people may surprise you at first as it’s certainly more prevalent than in some other countries. Don’t worry though because it’s easy to get used to; just say ‘thank you’ when someone has given you something or moved out of the way for you, ‘please’ when asking for something and ‘sorry’ should you bump into someone or inconvenience them slightly.
