I was treated for Breast Cancer and went to both of these hospitals for surgery and also for radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment. The care from the nurses and drs was all wonderful. They all explained everthing at each stage which was so helpful. I knew what was going to happen at everey stage my consultant Dr Purohit was very kind and attentive.
The radiotherapy and chemotherapy was not very nice in itself but staff were really caring and they helped by me with a smile and with humour. They were very quick to spot and treat a blood clot which developed. They were also really understanding about my problems with needles and found an alternative.
Also thanks to my GP at Highgate. They spotted it really quickly, I felt a lump on the Tuesday, went to see my GP on the Weds and heard from the hospital on Friday.
The only thing that was not right was that they gave me the wrong medication on discharge meant for another patient. It was really quickly changed and they apologised.
"Very kind and attentive"
