Share review of Queen Alexandra Hospital
The booking in process was thorough and I received good detailed explanations of what was going to happen and what I was consenting too. Details were double checked with Dr. That were unsure which made me feel I was with highly professional staff not afraid to ask if they didn't know the answer rather than guess it will be ok.
The last time I had this procedure I had just a gown the addition of back opening bottom pants was such a pleasant surprise and really improved how I felt. I felt less vulnerable and protected my dignity.
The procedure team and endocospist were brilliant. They worked seamlessly as a team and I felt safe, comfortable and fully informed. A much much better experience than last time.
Recovery was OK, I recieved good care but environment and ambience was a little more casual. And I wasnt keen on how staff conversations could be overheard at the desk including picking up another staff member on failures which of course should be addressed but I felt it could have been handled differently and not in front of other colleagues that sniggered after.
Discharge process could have been better hence marked down slightly.
