I visited the Oral & Maxillofacial Outpatients dept. for an extraction and was amazed at how friendly and professional everyone was. I was talked with (not at) , made to feel an equal, and the extraction took maybe half a minute. The room was light and airy. I admit my treatment was straightforward and my main reason for going there was that other medical problems could have made things difficult.
To the caring dentist to the nurse who kept my mind off things by chatting to me and the member of staff in the recovery room who made sure I was fine before leaving and took me back to my husband in the waiting room I'd like to say a huge thank you. You were all very much appreciated.
I only gave the hospital 4 stars because of access. As everyone knows the parking position is terrible so we took a taxi but I don't walk very well and of course there were no wheelchairs to be seen. Luckily my husband had brought a small stool as I could not have walked non stop to the Dept. Would it not be possible to put some fixed chairs at intervals? I've seen these at other medical centres and I can't be the only one who can't walk long distances non-stop.
