Southlands Hospital

If I could be treated for any issues in this hospital, despite the fact that it is slight 'worn' I would select it anyday. The people are outstanding and I thank them perfusely. Sorry that I couldn't honestly think of anything negative to say - other than clearly the staff are not paid enough!!!!

Arrived at the day surgery unit, under care of urology after a Prostate op... Staff Nurse explained about my TWOC , finally having a catheter removed after 14 months due to heart attack and other issues... team were totally professional and sympathetic throughout, nice atmosphere and a sense of calm , i was a bit nervous but the whole procedure was painless and i soon relaxed and very quickly felt at ease due to the attitude of the staff, cant fault Southlands Day Surgery Unit Bless our NHS .

I cannot comment on the NHS facilities at the hospital but the private wing was excellent. This ranked as one of the very best. The staff had time to discuss and I felt very safe.

I recently had a bunion operation and this was carried out at the Day Surgery Unit at Southlands Hospital, Shoreham by Sea. There were a number of us having a chat and comparing scars, illnesses etc (as you do!) whilst waiting for the Unit to open at 07:30 and this helped alleviate any nerves. We were all ushered in promptly at 07:30 and directed to our individual cubicles. All the nursing staff were really friendly and I was kept informed regarding when to get changed and what time I was due to go to Theatre. A visit from the anaesthetist was followed by one from the Consultant and then off I went. At all times I felt confident in the abilities of everyone I met. I have a great deal of admiration for anyone in the medical profession - they do a brilliant job under sometimes difficult circumstances. Well done, keep up the good work!

Hospital operations can be daunting, I wasn't to sure what to expect never had operation before and having visited Southland's few years ago as a visitor I had my doubts. However as soon as I arrived they disappeared , the building the staff the doctors and the surgeons were amazing. A truly wonderful experience surrounded by an amazing bunch of NHS dedicated staff.. IN THE WORDS OF TINA TURNER SIMPLY THE BEST!. Well done and thank you.
