The care was good.

I stayed in for five weeks and the care on the ward was good. The food could be improved but it was okay.

No check up was given

November 12, 2024
I had gallbladder surgery. Admitted at 8am and discharged by 6pm. Not one medical professional has checked on me. I’ve had no information about my operation and if there were any issues. I’ve had to go it alone and guess.

I had an MRI at Heartlands. I was seen on time, processed quickly, treated respectfully and professionally. Medics were efficient and friendly. I was well taken care of and everything was clearly explained to me.
