Review titled Excellent Treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Carmel Napier - Posted on 08 September 2024
My husband has recently had two cataract operations conducted by the consultant and his team. It has been positively life changing. It has had a huge impact on my husband’s vision and quality of life. A huge thank you to the consultant and his team for exemplary treatment, skills and nursing care. Woodlands Hospital treatment from start to end has been an excellent experience with brilliant outcomes. Thank you.

My neighbour was given 2 paracetamol following extensive BCC excision. In agony afterwards when LA worn off later that evening. Had to ring 111 to get a doctor to prescribe something stronger. NHS would have given a prescription that was appropriate. Neighbour is 93 yrs young.

Review titled Reassuring Assessment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by June - Posted on 09 April 2024
My experience for my pre op assessment was very reassuring prior to my operation. The sister was very friendly and professional and was able to answer all my questions and I left feeling much happier about my shoulder replacement and would certainly recommend the service I had.

My father came in for his second cataract operation and I again sat in the reception observing the comings and goings, the staff were again attentive, warm and friendly. Super attentive to those who were vulnerable with a real genuine can do attitude. A really pleasant environment making nervous people feel comfortable.

I was so well looked after during my knee replacement surgery, the nurses, the staff, the doctors. The food was delicious. Nothing was too much. Very professional.

Review titled excellent experience
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by jennifer margaret cartner - Posted on 17 November 2023
I attended for a cataract removal and naturally was quite anxious. The staff put me at ease before the procedure with their efficiency and a liitle bit of good humour. Consequently during the procedure I felt as though I could have complete trust in the staff and was able to relax. All went well and so far so good, would recommend to anyone about to go through the same operation.

I attended Woodlands Hospital on 06/11/2023 for Cataract Surgery and from Nursing Staff at reception, through surgery to discharge I found the Ophthalmology Teams people skills, patient care and professionalism throughout first class and award 5 Stars. To-date by following the Discharge Teams instructions I have not experienced any Post Op problems due to the surgery skills and the improvement in my eye sight is amazing. Thank you all Peter McGraghan
