I was admitted a week ago for a full knee replacement and patella.
I would not hesitate to recommend the hospital and it's staff to anyone if they had to go into the hospital. My privacy and dignity was respected, I was involved in my care/treatment during my stay and was treated with compassion.
In my ward of four ladies there was a very cheerful and friendly atmosphere. We were treated wonderfully by the staff who gave us great care and attention I am personally most grateful for the way I was looked after.
I am sorry to say that the only let down was the food. It was unpalatable. Nothing seemed to be freshly cooked and even though I requested it I never got any fresh fruit.
It is most regrettable to end on such a sour note, however this is a wonderful hospital.
"Treated with compassion"
