Blakelands Hospital

I had awake subacromial decompression keyhole surgery in May. The recovery was really quick and I didn't have much downtime as I didn't have the general anaesthetic. The sedation made me completely relaxed and the block made the procedure completely pain free. I watched as Mr Srinivan performed the surgery. The surgery nurse and team were great. High level of care.

Went here yersterday for a biopsy. Everyone on was lovely but especially a gentle who was in surgery yersterday. Not sure name was ian or Neil can't remember. If it wasent for him helping me through it yersterday wouldn't able to have it do. Thanks very much for looking after me.

Have to say i was well impressed from start to finish, from initial check in at reception, i was in and out in 90min and the care, attention and level of professionalism was first class. Thank you Ramsay Health Care!

Attended Blakelands hospital this morning to see Mr Marek, the appointment was for my husband who also has dementia. We have seen this consultant a number of times over the past few years and he has carried out three orthopaedic operations too. This morning my husband was told why he has been experiencing pain flares to his left knee and that no surgery was necessary at this time. Very reassuring particularly as the type of dementia my husband has is behavioural and he doesn’t trust many people, but Mr Marek puts him at his ease every time we see him so my husband was confident with everything that was said, a very positive outcome and as his carer I appreciate the time given to us both. Thank you so much.

I feel I have experienced the best of care, from reception to leaving the hospital. Everything was efficient , friendly and reassuring, removing any stress I might have felt. All procedures were fully explained and questions were encouraged and replied to in the most friendly way. All staff introduced themselves , and while in recovery any staff going by was either offering refresments, or checking I was fine, all making eye contact with me which is very important. There were no delays at any time. I have come home with a very clear plan of action for wound care and pain mangement ( I am lucky to experience very little pain so far). I feel I have received 5 star treatment from amazing professional. I will fully recommend Blakesland Hospital to any one asking my opinion. Thank you to the whole team, a shing example of how it should be done everywhere.
