"Neurosurgery and Eye Clinic"

About: The Royal Victoria Infirmary / Neurology

I can't speak highly enough of the care I have received at the RVI.

After 2 years of being not listened to by my doctor I was fortunate to be referred to a doctor at a local eye clinic.

Through their thoroughness I was diagnosed with a meningioma - benign brain tumour.

The diagnosis was scary but with the care of the consultant and the skill of the neurosurgeon by outcome is so better than I ever expected.

All of the teams I have met, including Ward 15 and ICU, treated me with dignity at all times.

From the scary prospect of a craniotomy I have nothing but praise for everyone I have met at the RVI and the excellent treatment I received.
