Can not fault my experience, as a nhs patient I was lucky enough to be able to select this hospital , out of a group of around 8, the waiting times for an initial appointment and the length of time before treatment, made it a no brainer . In fact from start of my initial consultation to my operation was less than 3 months. My experience from the arrival for my consultation to leaving after my operation, and everything in-between, has been nothing but professional but also very friendly and everyone I came into contact with, from the catering staff, all the way up to the consultant, were extremely polite and helpful, nothing seemed to be a problem. The nurses that looked after me , always made time to make sure I was ok, from comfortable to pain management, they was superb. If your in for any sort of operation that us covered by this hospital, I would have no doubts in recommending the whole team

I had surgery at Woodthorpe yesterday, and I honestly couldn’t be more grateful for the care I received from start to finish. A special thank you to Linda, the nurse, who was incredibly friendly and helpful. She immediately put both me and my mum at ease, taking the time to answer all of our questions and making sure I felt comfortable throughout. She was also so considerate of my preferences- she arranged a wheelchair to take me to the car when I didn’t feel confident on crutches, and even sorted some toast for me instead of sandwiches because I was craving it! Linda also went the extra mile to get my sick note extended when I explained that I’m a Pilates instructor and that two weeks wouldn’t be enough given how active my job is. Frances, the physiotherapist, was equally fantastic. She was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to carefully teach me the exercises I need to do, as well as how to properly use the crutches. She clearly explained the anatomy and physiology behind the surgery, which really helped me understand what to expect during recovery. The anaesthetist was very informative and reassuring, clearly explaining all of the medications that would be administered, which helped ease any nerves beforehand. Dr Karuppiah, the surgeon, was brilliant. Despite it being early in the morning, he was energetic, efficient, and explained the procedure clearly, along with what recovery would look like. I also really appreciated receiving a follow-up call today to check how I was getting on, the lady I spoke to was kind, supportive, and happy to answer my questions. Overall, I felt very well cared for by a team that is not only highly professional but also genuinely compassionate. Thank you all so much!

I have just had my gall bladder removed by Mr Vohra and his team. I was a super anxious patient but Mr Vohra and his anesthetist were wonderful, so calm and patient. I felt in very safe hands. The nursing staff, Kayleigh, Raycent the lady who brought in my food and other staff who kept popping in and taking my readings were all wonderful too. This hospital and it's staff ooze professionalism and care. Thank you! Maria Masterton

Over the past 12–18 months, I have received brilliant care from Woodthorpe Hospital. From the very beginning, they took my case seriously, listened to my concerns, and acted quickly. I always felt that my health and wellbeing were a priority. Dr Ghosh has been especially outstanding. He is professional, understanding, and has a calm manner that immediately puts you at ease. I have felt completely confident and reassured under his care. The ward staff and recovery staff have also been amazing — kind, attentive, and supportive throughout my treatment and recovery. Their compassion really made a difference during what could have been a very stressful time. The only reason I am not giving a full five stars is due to communication. I completely understand that it is a busy hospital, but I have often found myself ringing 15+ times just to get through to reception. Trying to get updates about appointments, results, or general queries and having to repeatedly call has been frustrating over the months. Overall, the clinical care has been exceptional, and I am very grateful for the treatment I have received. Improved telephone communication would make the experience.

I recently had a total knee replacement and had to stop in overnight. All the staff were courteous, professional and welcoming. Everything was explained to you and all queries were answered to your satisfaction. I have only one query I thought I would be loaned a raised toilet seat as with a knee operation it is very difficult to sit on and get off the toilet but apparently not, some information on where to loan one would have helped. But that doesn't distract from the excellent care the Woodthorpe Hospital.
