Mr Thakral was pleasant and explained the procedure and and what was necessary after the operation.
My experience was excellent and made very comfortable with everything explained on the day
High quality of care throughout professional and friendly
A very good experience at the hospital. The speed at which I got an appointment and then the following operation was very good. The hospital was very clean. All the staff are very efficient and friendly giving me confidence during my treatment..
Absolutely brilliant service from the moment I arrived before my surgery. Every member of staff, from Reception through to the medical team, was kind, supportive and reassuring throughout both the pre-operative and post-operative stages. I felt very well looked after.
I recently had rotator cuff surgery, everything was explained clearly and although the first week after the op was very hard and painful I now feel I'm in a good recovery. All the staff have been excellent and the hospital was exemplary.
Never felt better after a procedure thank you so much
