Reviews
Informative and felt heard and supported
A totally professional staff. I felt included in all areas of my consultation. A first class service by all concerned. Even though I was nervous and concerned I was put at ease. I felt my situation was dealt with honestly and with consideration for my wellbeing.
Excellent service provided by Mr Sidebottom. I was always able to contact him as and when needed. I did require some emergency treatment which was dealt with quickly.
Mr Sidebottom was extremely professional, as well as being warm and friendly which put me at ease and gave me immense confidence. The procedure itself was absolutely perfect!! I would highly recommend both the hospital and Mr Sidebottom.

Excellent
I had a difficult wisdom tooth which had to come out and was fused to the bone. Unfortunately I got an infection in the bone afterwards, but Mr Sidebottom was very attentive and supportive and dealt with the issues in a calm and timely manner. I could not fault his caring attitude.
Mr Sidebottom provided clear information in a calm, reassuring manner, from my first consultation. He explained all the issues and answered all my questions, giving me confidence in the procedure that was to follow. On admission for day surgery he again reassured me about the procedures and answered my unasked questions because I was too nervous to think of any! I had complete confidence in him. After my operation he came to explain the process and discuss the next steps. Again, I was complete reassured.
