Patient Feedback

Hear from our patients talk about their recent experience with us

  • I have had three operations at the Woodlands Hospital, with exceptional treatment. The nurses and staff are professional, they have a passion to want to care for the patients in their care. Thank you to you all for making my stay comfortable, being treated with dignity and above all being treated as a person and not a number. Natasha Small

  • I had surgery at Oaklands Hospital and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Every single member of staff was so kind and caring. The nurses were fantastic, and the healthcare workers who came when I pressed the buzzer were always quick to help and very reassuring. The doctor who checked on me was lovely, and the student nurses were great too. Even the lady who brought tea and broth was so kind and thoughtful. My surgeon also popped in before I went home to check on me and see how I was feeling, which I really appreciated. The anaesthetist spoke with me the next day while I was walking around and encouraged me, which meant a lot. Overall, everyone made me feel really well looked after. It’s such a friendly and caring place, and I feel very lucky to have had my surgery there.

  • Following initial GP visit and then scan, I was referred to Woodthorpe Hospital for a Hernia op. Communication along the way, leading up to admission was informative, clear and just the right amount. On the day, all staff were welcoming and friendly. I was kept well informed on what was to come and nothing was too much trouble to ensure I had a comfortable stay. Operation went well and was given plenty of information in regard to recovery. Thanks to all.

  • Beautiful and Clean facilities and room! Took a picture of the bathroom as I felt like I was in a hotel! My husband was allowed to come and wait with me while we waited for the consultant and procedure. All the staff were super friendly and comforting as I was very nervous about being put to sleep. After care was brilliant. Food was amazing too! Would highly recommend!
