Fast, smart and friendly.
Neil was exceptional.
I was very disappointed, as I made clear to Dr Molodynski, when I contacted the AMHT in February last year when I was having a particularly rough time to be told there was no one to see or speak to me and to just carry on with my GP which at that time was not working (through not fault of theirs). So it was a huge relief to me when I was able to see Dr M. as I had felt, from my previous experience, that he really engaged, listened and supported me when things were especially bad with my mental health. This last time too I had six sessions with Mary that I also found to be extremely helpful, meeting her once a week and having an objective sounding board and she gave constructive advice that was a huge boon to my getting back on track. I am hugely grateful to Dr M for again, helping me get back to, what feels like, a sustainable level.
The one point I would say I personally do not enjoy about visiting the Didcot AMHT is the radio in the waiting area. I find having Heart radio at a loud volume in such a small space in no way conducive to feeling calmer and even found it quite distressing when I was struggling being outside (of my home) in a public space. I believe, ideally, the radio should provide a softer volume so that it’s merely a background noise that is easier to tune out if needs be.
My care was wonderful and I would recommend the clinic as a place to go rather than waiting for ages at A&E. So quick and efficient.
Our experience in the car park was, however, not so happy. The machine is situated where the light from the overhead lamps does not illuminate it. It is impossible to read the instructions. Between us we managed to put in the car reg number and then pressed the green button twice. Nothing happened for about 3 minutes, though we were not timing it. A message on the screen seemed to suggest that something was happening, so no one else could use the machine ( a lady was waiting behind us) and we had not received our ticket. Then quite suddenly it started up again and printed the ticket. Very stressful, and not what one should expect from the NHS
They was understanding and took the time to listen to everything I had to say.
It is good that we have the opportunity to build a relationship with the same therapist.
I have been treated with genuine respect.
I do not their anything could be improved.
Except for better precises and a more comfortable environment.
.
I cannot thank you all enough for your kindness and support. All have a great chr
All the staff were extremely friendly. I would have liked more physio ( not enough physios) Typical hospital food, catering for the elderly. I ate the food because I was hungry sandwiches not very pleasant.
