"Care and attention during orthopaedic surgery"

I would like to thank Mr Periasamy and team for the care and attention received during and after my hip operation.

All staff on Ward 1 involved in pre operative care were outstanding and I can't praise them enough for the individual nursing care and empathy given in what must be a very difficult job.

The only negative comment is regarding the patient waiting time promise. I was placed on the waiting list May 2016 and was admitted November 2016 which caused a great deal of stress.

I was not kept informed by the hospital admin staff of any delay.

When calling it is an answerphone and when a member of staff calls back you are advised you will receive the first available operation date (which could mean anything)
