Patient Feedback

  • My procedure carried out by Mr Chapman and my stay at the Winfield Hospital, Gloucester, was absolutely outstanding. From start to finish I was looked after extremely well with plenty of outpatient check ups. Mr Chapman himself has exceeded all my expectations and his work is incredible. Would 100% recommend him and also the services at the Winfield.

  • I recently had the privilege of receiving treatment at the Winfield Hospital and would like to convey my thanks to those concerned. Mr Thomas Chapman performed two minor operations… from the onset, he was courteous, highly professional and took the time to explain everything he was doing throughout each procedure. I am absolutely delighted with the results of these operations. The nursing staff were kind and caring, always very reassuring, showing great concern for my comfort and wellbein I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Chapman and the staff at the Winfield to anyone seeking treatment there and I would certainly consider returning if I needed further procedures.
