"Simply the best"

To the Maxillofacial Team.

I was admitted on Sunday November 24 for my Mouth Cancer Operation the following day. I was very impressed with the care and consideration I received that evening from staff and consultants who explained what would happen and put me completely at ease that evening and who returned the following day to finally check I was prepared and ready for a nine hour procedure. The team welcomed me into theatre and I awoke in Critical Care where I received professional monitoring and visits by the surgical team over two days and afterwards on D8. Everyone greeted me with a smile and gave me encouragement and helped me to understand my progress. After 10 days, my progress towards discharge had gone to plan and I left the hospital feeling very grateful for the care and kindness from our wonderful NHS in general and QA in Portsmouth in particular. If you need a surgical procedure be confident and trust that you are in the best of hands.
