Excellent service and very informative though out the procedure. Also I appreciate the technical discussion we had regarding the endoscope and how it works.
I was welcomed to the treatment room by Dr Fox and nurses in a very relaxed and friendly way. The procedure was explained carefully to me so I understood exactly what to expect. I chose gas and air rather than sedation as from previous experience the procedure is not particularly uncomfortable, plus I wanted to watch it on screen. During the procedure conversation between us all flowed freely and at times humourously and the whole episode was really not unpleasant.
I would add that my care both before and after the procedure was equally caring and friendly, and it seems to me that the general atmosphere at this hospital is efficient yet relaxed, friendly yet professional.
Thank you Doctor and all the staff who cared for me today.
Had a colonoscopy today great care great staff thank you
I was an older (72) and very nervous patient when I met Dr Fox for my first procedure. It was immediately obvious that he was very experienced in dealing with nervous patients and his calm and quiet manner soon began to take effect! He explained the procedure in language I could understand and talked through possible risks, benefits, outcomes. His nurse colleagues were equally calm and attentive when necessary, creating professional but friendly atmosphere. I felt the respect and support Dr Fox showed his colleagues was reciprocated, which helped me feel these people were a team I could trust. By the time I attended or a second procedure, I felt quite calm
Thank you Dr Fox. To me you represent the very best of our NHS,
Yours sincerely
