From my pre natal care to my delivery ever member of staff I met was professional, friendly, helpful and reassuring. I required extra checks of my sons heart, I was seen quickly and thoroughly with very impressive technology and a consultant came especially to follow me up. The midwife specialist nurses were fantastic as was Dr Shasta and I can not thank them enough for there knowledge and reassurance at a worrying time. At every visit I was seen promptly and informed if there was a wait.
On the day of delivery I telephoned the unit and I was given great advice and again lots of support. I was assessed and all the midwifes involved in my care were amazing! ! This was my third baby and the best experience (my previous had been good ones).
I was treated with dignity and respect every step of the way. Even though it was obviously busy all mine and my husbands wishes were taken care of. I delivered my baby in the water pool with only gas and air and this was due to the skills and help of the midwives. Special thanks to Michelle and Judy the midwives, you made my experience very special! !
