Just writing to say a very big "Thank you" for all the care I have received from Hillingdon Hospital, after I broke my left ankle (Medial Malloeus injury) on Monday 18th May 2015. i am 51 years old and have never had an operation in hospital before, so I was very nervous about how things would go. But my fears were laid to rest with the excellent care I received. My ankle seems to be doing well, and the scar is barely visible. it is very scary breaking my ankle and my first thought was will I ever walk normally again. This experience has certainly made me really appreciate the NHS even more than I did before. And I just feel it is show important to show you my appreciation in writing, and to say, once again, thank you to everyone in Hillingdon Hospital who was involved in my care. Miss JJ

My wife is currently under the "care" of this doctor and it has been by far the worst experience with a doctor she has ever had. He has not listened once. He has reported inaccuracies on two separate occasions. Didn't follow up with the correct people to attain her scans - I had to do this myself. Has completely ignored the fact that she has Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I am disgusted that this man is employed.
