Recently had an arthroscopy on Ward 3 Day Surgery Unit at Fairfield Hospital. After being given directions by one of the volunteers based at the main entrance I was at the ward reception desk
Within minutes I was booked in, relevant checks were made and the procedure explained. Another short wait and then the required conversations with the anesthetist and surgeon followed. Any fears or nerves that I had were calmed by the friendly medical staff that were around. I was soon on my way to the theatre. Next thing that I recollect was the offer of a sandwich and a drink followed by being given information as to what I needed to do after my discharge.
I was helped to feel comfortable at all times, relaxed and informed as to what was going to happen next.
Sincere thanks for all help and advice given
"Excellent care provided"
