Lovely clean hospital and friendly staff. However we ended up with a late operation at 5pm that meant our daughter was not going to be out until after 8pm. When I enquired at the ward reception I was told we would not be allowed to see her until the morning. We went home but decided to return at 7.30pm and waited until she came out and was assured by the anaesthetist that absolutely we could see our daughter to make sure all was well and that there was no question of us leaving before we were happy. I do feel this should be transmitted to the ward reception (I don't think it was medical staff) as it is only right that you need to be reassured that things have gone well. On one of the follow up appointments, for some reason it wasn't entered correctly. We had a card with the time and date but when we arrived there appeared to be no record with reception or with the Doctor although we were seen within 40 minutes of our time given. Unfortunately I didn't have the card with me as 'evidence' but checked at home later. it had been a new receptionist so perhaps hadn't been entered correctly. Overall we were happy with all treatments and the nursing staff in particular were lovely.
