Having even a minor operation under local anaesthetic is stressful. From the moment I entered the Day Surgery unit I was met with efficiency, care and friendliness by all staff, which I found reassuring.
I have visited this dept several times and they are always so lovely and helpful
Very positive experience - I felt that the member of staff was professional, knowledgeable and compassionate.
every single member of the team was thoroughly professional and caring. Mr Kaba was clear concise understanding and calming. His anaesthetist ( I apologise for forgetting his name) was informative calm and very helpful.
The other team members of note are: -
Danni,
Annie
and Rachel.
All were great. I did not want to be there but needed to be there and the experience was as good as anyone could have wanted.
My thanks to all concerned and that is simply not enough
My condition does occur occasionally but I don’t identify it as a long-term condition.
Yes, because of all the above. Highly professional staff.
Larkin Ward hysteroscopy.
Greeted and treated by kind, reassuring professionals. I was nervous and my fears were allayed.
Thanks to all for your considerate care.
The care and support provided by the team I met today was superb; they are lovely people. I was anxious and they put me at ease.
I went into hospital for a c section. The actual procedure went extremely smoothly and the theatre staff, midwives, doctors and obstetricians were all great. I couldn’t fault them! They made me feel at ease and explained everything well.
It was the after care that I found to be somewhat shocking. Once I was back on the ward I really felt let down. I wasn’t offered help to wash or to get out of bed. When I buzzed often staff would take a long time to respond or not at all. I just felt neglected. If it was my first experience of having a baby I would have left feeling really upset and nervous about facing going home after with my baby. As it happens I was desperate to get out! On one occasion I was offered bed sheets to change my bed from theatre. I was expected to do this myself after having undergone major abdominal surgery. I felt like I was asking too much when I buzzed for advice or just reassurance about my baby. I was left to manage my own medication which I think is terrible when you are sleep deprived and managing a baby at the same time. I was also discharged with not enough medication for the week and asked to contact my G.P for more when I called up the ward on my return having not realised I didn’t have enough medication. I really was shocked at how new mums are made to feel and I’m so glad I won’t be planning on having another baby!
