The Irish nurse was excellent. She understood my condition and gave sensible and reassuring advice. I have recommended her to friends.
B.H.C. The woman I saw was pleasant but I did not find her of much help. Having looked at my back, r. hip, r. knee. She simply said she would refer me to physio dept. Yeovil. Waited 9 weeks.
Saw physiotherapist there - v. good examination - was given an exercise to do, which may help. Felt I could have had exercise advice. Felt I could have had exercise advice whilst at BHC.
Prompt and lots of advice for home.
I was sent for an X-ray after my initial assessment. However the practitioner was not quite sure of how the appointment system worked and I had to write to Taunton Hospital after which an appointment was made.
Good.
Quick appointment, qualified MSK practitioner, gave good advice.
Improved.
No discussion about follow - up appointments/advice on preventive care.
I was booked into an appointment very quickly and further appointment were booked without issues and when required.
I was surprised that the treatment area was shared with other patients.
Great service, but more availablity of appointments would be helpful.
It was good to get a referral to see an orthotist but when I saw him I got a completely different diagnosis. Although I have to go back to see the orthotist I think he is a waste of time. All he told me to do is buy some lace up boots!.
Good diagnosis and then referral to ongoing treatment.
