Explanation

Referred to the incredible Dr Rosie Swallow top consultant due to breathlessness and chest pains. From the minute we arrived at the Dorset heart Clinic at Royal Bournemouth hospital, it has been {ongoing} total complete excellence personified. A welcoming and warm initial team help to relax ones concerns and nothing is too much trouble. They excel in their overall attitude. Dr Rosie Swallow was simply incredible. Her long standing experience and professionalism shone out like a beacon. She took literally everything on board, and immediately gave a plan ahead including the required numerous checks, scans etc etc required in order for her to have a fuller picture which would help her hopefully diagnose my issues. Her empathy, her genuine caring, and her ability to make one feel that as a patient i was the ONLY patient she had to deal with, was second to none. I have since had the majority of my tests and am awaiting a heart full scan before hopefully then seeing Rosie Swallow for a third consultation. I have dealt with a large number of consultants and their respective teams over many years and despite ones concerns over health, { of the heart} this team, this heart centre, this consultant and her amazing team, are without doubt, amazing in every respect and can be proud of all they are doing here in Bournemouth. God bless them Sue Burningham in Bournemouth Please feel free to leave my name on this as it is an unsolicited feedback for them all.

Explanation

Still waiting for follow-up consultation once test results and a further CT scan are reviewed, so this is just an initial view. My post-examination consultation was efficient and informative. Very slightly disappointed that Dr Swallow was unaware of the ‘Palpitations Package’ that I’d just paid £1,600 for, but this didn’t affect the thoroughness of the consultation. So far, very happy.
