Absolutely fine, they're quite efficient. If I turn up before my appointment time they will see me and I will be in and out within 20 minutes. They're very good.

I am under them for long covid. We don't know what's happening, but they're monitoring me and I'm doing physio. It's helpful. I just get hit by complete tiredness.
Pretty good and no issues with them.

I have chemotherapy every 2 weeks and every cycle was 36 hours. It ended in May this year. It was intense but the staff were great and supportive.
Same day surgery

The team that saw me after my PEG tube came out said they would put me in the queue at 5AM, they had done the surgery by 10AM the same day. They then told me to go home and eat and drink as normal as they said the tube had been pulled out when the staples were removed.
Waited at A&E when a peg tube came out
A&E
August 21, 2024
I spent the night in A&E after the peg tube came out of my stomach. The seating wasn't great. They offered me morphine and I was in and out of sleep. Wasn't sure if I was having an operation, they took me to the emergency surgical ward at 5AM to discuss what was going to happen going forward.
I had to pay privately for a hip replacement
A&E
August 13, 2024
I had knee surgery in February and at the end of June I could hardly move. My husband took me to A&E and a bed was found at 3AM. I had x-rays on my pelvis and some blood tests. I was told that everything was fine by the consultant. I insisted it was a hip problem not pelvis. I ended up paying private for a consultation and then surgery privately for a hip replacement.
