The Wellington Hospital

marvelous in all aspects

I HAVE BEEN A PATIENT AND FRIEND OF PROFESSOR AVIJIT LAHIRI FOR OVER 30 YEARS, AND HIS DENTAL SURGEON FOR ALL THAT TIME. ON HIS RETIREMENT, I HAD MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DAVID LIPKIN FOR CONSULTATION AFTER TWO WEEKS OF PERSISTENT CHEST DISCOMFORT. I DECIDED TO GO TO THE PRIVATE WALK-IN CENTRE YESTERDAY AND WAS FIRST SEEN FOR EXAMINATION BY DR. DIPAK ADHIKARI AND THEN BY SOBIA WHO TOOK MY BLOODS AND CARRIED OUT AN ECG. AFTER I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS CLEAR, I WENT HOME RELIEVED AND WAS TELEPHONED A LITTLE LATER BY DR. ADHIKARI WHO TOLD ME AS MY TROPONIN ENZYME LEVEL WAS THE HIGH LEVEL OF NORMAL IT WOULD BE SAFER TO HAVE ANOTHER TEST A LITTLE LATER TO CONFIRM ALL WAS FINE. I RETURNED AT 7.00pm AND SAW LAURA (FROM BARCELONA) WHO RETOOK MY BLOODS AND TWO HOURS LATER BY DR. SAMUEL WHO GAVE ME THE GOOD NEWS THAT MY DISCOMFORT WAS DUE TO STRESS AND NOT CARDIAC. THE TREATMENT AND CARE WAS SUPERB, THE DOCTORS WERE HIGHLY PROFESSIONAL AND LAURA WAS A SUPERB PROFESSIONAL AND A BEAUTIFUL PERSON; MY EXTREME AND HEARTFELT THANKS TO YOU ALL.

Absolutely shocking reception staff at AAU demanding money as soon as we arrived , pointing her finger on persons face and demanding payment , while patient was in crutial situation wasn’t even seen by the doctor or nurse ! We were busy dealing with the patient and wouldn’t run away without payment ! We were admired there by a very reputable doctor , but they have zero respect to patients . They only count money ! Absolutely pathetic lady and her behaviour started our horrid experience in that AAU . Never again will use their services , better to go on NHS and wait for ages but to get amazing quality treatment by staff !

Exceptional level of surgical and nursing care. Very impressed during my recent time there. The reception staff at the Platinum Centre are not at the same level of professionalism as their colleagues elsewhere at the hospital. The food and catering is ok but not as good as the London Clinic. Everything else though is pretty much faultless at the Wellington.

Sadly my review is similar to a lot of the others, if I could go back in time I would rather go to a crowded NHS hospital than the Wellington hospital. What's more important a large sized room or decent health care?! Great you're left unattended big room all by yourself with no one checking on you after major surgery.. honestly for anything major do yourself a favour and don't risk your life by staying somewhere like the Wellington.
