Glendon Wood Hospital

No issues very attentive as ever

The hospital was very clean , modern and ample free parking .

No information given by nurse or in literature re any particular order administering 2 x drops plus ointment and whether to wait an interval between insertion. Phone call needed next morning to clarify. On second visit for cataract surgery mentioned to nurse who agreed it should be included in instructions.

My appointment was delayed I believe due to a lack of consultant on the day. The premises were spotless, the welcome from all staff was excellent. Even though I was anxious they kept me calm

All staff are amazing, a very happy patient

Glendon wood is very welcoming with kind and caring staff from reception staff right through to nurses and doctors. The facilities are new and perfectly clean and inviting. The atmosphere helps even the most anxious of people feel calmer.

Very quick polite friendly and helpful staff

Initial consultation with kind helpful staff. Thorough competent examination and procedure explained well. 3 month wait for surgery. On arrival taken quickly through to preparation room. Gown given to wear over clothes. Taken to theatre anti room where eye drops given, this was pain free. No sedation needed. Asked by surgeon if I could stare at bright lights during the operation; I confirmed this was the case. Taken into operating theatre and made very comfortable lying on my back. A thin white cloth was placed over my face with air blowing gently onto my face. Surgery commenced and all I was aware of was three white bright lights to look at and a slight image of fine lines moving across my vision. The surgery was finished quickly; I believe in about 20 minutes and I was taken back to another room with an eye patch . I wore the eye patch overnight and for ten subsequent nights. My vision was very good by the next morning, an excellent result. No showering for a week, no heavy lifting or gardening for at least two weeks. Cleanliness of hands and face very important following surgery to avoid an infection. Excellent result and I look forward to having my other eye operated on.!
