Tonsillectomy

Story from nhs.uk

"Tonsillectomy"

About: Dorset County Hospital / Ear, Nose and Throat

I don't think I've ever written a review for anything before, but in this instance I couldn't resist. I had a day surgery tonsillectomy last week and the entire team who cared for me were superb. I was extremely nervous and had a little waiting around to do, but every single person (particularly the anaesthetist) put me completely at ease.

I would especially like to thank the lovely support staff in the preop preparation ward, the anaesthetist and their assistant, and the lovely lovely nurses on the recovery ward after.

Dear Anonymous

Thank you for the lovely feedback about your recent tonsillectomy. It is fantastic to hear that you had a superb experience, which is what we aim for with all of our patients!

I will make sure that your kind words are passed on to the anaesthetic, pre-op and recovery teams who I know will be thrilled to read this. I hope that you're recovering well following your procedure.

Best wishes,

Becky Protopsaltis

Head of Patient and Public Engagement
