I could not fault the care I received
Came home yesterday afternoon after surgery three nights on Shalbourne. Absolutely first-rate! Staff were friendly, professional and the care I received was excellent. Very impressed with standards of both catering and cleanliness. Thank you.
Parking is a nightmare and very expensive.
Wasted months to get an appointment and no further forward as a result of seeing this doctor.
He didn’t assist me at all and wasn’t the slightest bit interested!
Dry rude, arrogant man.
Very impressed with the staff attitude. Also the efficiency with which the teams who had different tasks & shifts co-ordinated with each other.
The hodpital itself is light & airy & well equipped.
I wanted a family member to greet me on the ward after my operation. This was very important to me as I tend to get anxious and panic. The family member was sent home before I got see them and I spent the night without the human contact I needed and became very upset. This was compounded by the fact that in theatre the nurses were very nice, stroked my arms and made me feel safe when I was scared and on the ward it seemed that the nurses are not allowed to do this and so it was a bit of an emotional shock going from one extreme to the other. Other than that, I could not fault the physical care I received on the ward.
To solve this problem I think it would be good if patients were asked their wishes regarding family members after their operations as you cannot expect nurses to fulfil patients emotional needs and after an operation.
The staff are all very welcoming, kind, respectful and discreet. No questions are silly and they will always listen. If you need any support with your sexual health then they here can help and support you or guide you to the right treatment or place if they cannot provide it here for you.
Very pleased with the operation and subsequent after care by Dr Robin Bhatia.

Alldbourne ward is efficiently run and provides a good patient experience for orthopedic surgery.
Jane Batty the nurse practitioner provided support and information and gave me confidence regarding my recovery.
My daughter had to go back for my medicines I feel the medication could be dispensed more quickly which would provide an empty bed promptly.
The service was quick as it was an emergency appointment.
The nurses were good but I was kept in the dark the whole time. Nobody could tell me what is happening with me, I finally saw the consultant who explained what he was going to do but by this point I had been in the hospital for 24hrs. After the emergency operation I wasn't told the outcome until the following morning. And even then, the explanation was vague at best.
More communication is needed. hi
Absolutely fantastic thank you so much. Seen quIckly in urgent care lovely receptionist and nurse - sent to A&E for xray. Again seen quickly child given calpol by an obviously very caring nurse (I hadn't)and sent to xray shown where to go and again saw a friendly face. Shown back to a&e and even had door opened for us! Again not a long wait and saw nurse practitioner who showed us x-rays and we were fully versed on after care.. Even got a follow up call at home to say might be contacted by orthopaedic doc! ! Wow so impressive! So professional and streamlined. What a caring bunch that were on duty last night. Please pass on our sincere thanks.
