"Excellent care"

About: Colchester General Hospital

I had major vascular surgery to my right leg last week. The surgeon and their team saved my right leg from being amputated.The treatment and care I received was second to none. The consultant was honest and forthright and told me and my family before the operation how much trouble I was in. I have to go back in e few weeks to have the same operation on my left leg. I am confident that I will receive the same standard of care. The people that moan about the food should remember that they are in hospital and not in a 5star hotel.The food was hot and there was always a choice of menus.
