"Excellent care, Excellent Neurology team,..."

About: St George's Hospital (Tooting) (London)

What I liked

All of the staff who dealt with me were exceptionally friendly.

The Neurology team i was under couldn't be anymore caring and friendly.

What could be improved

I did feel that i could have been given a little more information of what to expect in the days after my surgery. Ie: pain i may expect that i hadn't experienced in the hospital.

I feel that the info sent with my appointment could have included the fact that if you are staying in hospital your visitors can pay £10 or a parking permit which lasts a week. We didn't know about this until my husband mislaid his parking ticket and parking security told him about it.

Anything else?

I had my surgery on Tuesday 30th August and i was 1st on the list. I met with the surgeon who talked me through my procedure, they were very kind and very clear with what they were telling me. I met with the Anethetist who again was very kind and friendly and totally understanding when i started to blub!!!

My consultant came to see me as they were passing which i thought was very lovely as they didn't have to. The whole of this team were exceptionally friendly, caring and kind and i felt very lucky to have them care for me.

After surgery my consultant and surgeon came to visit me (at different times) to see how i was. This was not on a ward round just because they were passing. I was very touched.
