"Excellent care from medical unit and wards"

About: Leighton Hospital / Cardiology

I have recently had a spell of illness and was under the care of my GP, who felt I may have developed high blood pressure, and he was organising tests.

However my condition worsened and I was transferred from by the Emergency Doctor at my GP surgery who sent a letter to the Ambulatory Care Unit at Leighton Hospital.

I spent the day having tests and was admitted then to Ward 1. At this stage it was decided that I needed to have a pacemaker fitted and two days later I was transported by ambulance from the ward to the Royal Stoke Hospital, and I returned to a side room the same day and was discharged 2 days later.

Everyone that looked after me was first class and I was so impressed with my care. I was discharged from Ward 5.

All the doctors, nurses and staff looked after me so well at each stage of my treatment. I am very grateful for all the care provided to me.

Another word of praise for is the catering.

The food was always very good and I found something I could manage on the menu.

Well done Leighton.
