Nothing to add
I was seen at an outpatient clinic.
The receptionist. staff and nurses were very courteous and kind during my visit to the hospital. Thank you all of you.
There were a few blips beforehand, whereby I wasn't tested for MRSA at pre-op when I should have been. However, I was still able to have the procedure.
The procedure itself went very well. I had a spinal anaesthetic, which I recommend, as recovery is faster, you wake up sooner and have absolutely no recollection of even going into theatre. The anaesthetist was lovely as I felt faint prior to anaesthetic and he was very reassuring and relaxed, even though I was possibly the last patient of the day.
Of course Mr Ghosh was excellent and professional. He explained everything clearly during all consultations.
A special thank you to the nurse who cared for me during the night post-OP. Her o lt other colleague on duty was occupied with a patient suffering with dementia, leaving 1 nurse to care for everybody else, which she did cheerfully.
All staff were amazing-from the person who took me down to surgery, the medic who discovered MRSA debacle, the ladies who bought lunch and cleaned the ensuite.
I have to say it felt like a mini break and I was loathe to leave
Initially, the appointment and pre-op procedure were very smooth and efficient. Clean environment, certainly gave a relaxed feeling prior to my gall bladder operation. This was performed by Mr Buckingham and his team who, not only put me at ease prior, but were very comforting after the operation and provided me with all the immediate care and answered all questions on my possible health requirements over the coming weeks. Post op appointment with Mr Beckingham confirmed all was well and that I should have no concerns for the future without a gallbladder.
Dr Buckingham, who treated me for the removal of a gallstone and gallbladder, was fantastic. His charming manner, politeness and ability to make me feel at ease was superb. Prior to the operation he explained the procedure clearly and the post-operative check was well explained and done in a very friendly, professional manner.
The hospital staff provided a great care.
