Chris Sutton and the team at and Woodland Hospital
I visited Woodland hospital in Kettering to see Surgeon Chris Sutton for my Sleeve Gastrectomy From start to finish I was made to feel totally welcome by friendly laid back staff who looked after me for the duration of time I was there The process was very smooth and straight forward and from consultation to surgery day was a very short 2 months even during these tough times I was told by the NHS I would be waiting up to 3 years if I continued with that route I just didn t have it in me so I chose to purse privately and I m over the moon that I did best decision ever I stayed overnight in my private room with a beautiful view of the countryside a TV and comfortable bed As my operation was the morning after the day I got there I was given a nice cheese salad meal which was better then any hospital meal I have had The day of my surgery I was looked after by Emma my Nurse and the rest of the team Emma gave me a lovely gift of The Bariatric Bible book which was a nice touch I was made to feel at ease the whole way through adequate pain killers were given to keep me comfortable after my op and the night staff nurse looked after me as if I was one of her own I believe her name was Marie if I remember rightly I now have my own Nutritionist for 2 years who is great her name is Jane and am also under the care of the Nurse Emma for any help or advise any time I need via phone or hospital visit if need be Chris is also on hand and I will have chats with him every few months My weight loss so far has already changed my life and I m only 8 weeks in I m excited for life now where as before my surgery I had no hope for any future Chris Sutton is by far the nicest Surgeon I have met very good at what he does to an art very laid back and straight to the point with no messing about I am very glad I chose Ramsay Health Care at Woodland Hospital Such a great Hospital and a wonderful team of staff from all angles

Rivers Hospital
Rivers Hospital Sawbridgeworth I m a bit thrown on some of these reviews it must significantly vary across hospitals because my experience has been incredible From my very first appointment the receptionist almost couldn t be happier to see me and we did some initial paperwork My consultant Dr El Farra was on time and explained to me fully what was wrong what treatment I needed and why We got the date of my op booked in for just under 3 weeks later Op day itself was incredibly smooth and everyone was so kind and lovely I was shown to my room before 7am which was better than many hotels I ve stayed in I was the first op of the day which was great especially being so nervous and having to fast The nurse who took me down managed to help me calm down before going under general anaesthetic I was back up to my room awake and feeling as good you could just in time for England s first world cup game The food was decent and the nurses continued with their first class attentiveness and kindness The same nurse who took me down later helped me get changed and brought me biscuits she is a credit to your team Annette and Jennifer were also so kind and lovely Like they actually wanted to be there and look after you unlike many staff in bog standard NHS hospitals Dr El Farra visited me later to confirm the op went well and wished me a good recovery I ll certainly be seeing her again for any future gynaecological issues I ve not even had to take any paracetamol post op which goes to show how careful she was I even got a recording of the procedure in my discharge pack I was out that same evening and didn t feel gross or groggy or upset This was the best health experience I have ever had or witnessed Hopefully I don t ever need to come back but I know where I m going if I do Thank you all so much

I would like to thank my consultant and
I would like to thank my consultant and his team I had a full hip replacement under Mr Shah at The Woodlands hospital Kettering I would like to personally thank Mr Shah for his years of experience knowledge and commitment to his work I consider myself a very lucky person to have had Mr Shah do my procedure I would like to thank the team who took care of my every needs and concerns Charlie my physiotherapist was truly knowledgeable and gave me the details of movement and exercises for my recovery The nursing staff were attentive6 to my every need Alex who oversaw my discharge was very thorough with equipment I needed very very grateful for the equipment and how to have a great recovery with contact details for me if I had any concerns which put me at ease The pharmacist took the time to go through my pain relief and blood thinners meds I found that he wanted to listen to my concerns and helped me understand what I was to do The food was amazing Thank you I don t accept blood products so they made sure what I would accept and what I wouldn t accept in regards to fractions I must say that when I went to my anaesthetist appointment I don t think he took me seriously in refusing blood and this had to be sorted hours before my operation which was my only concern but a huge concern for me and the self salvage machine was booked for me in the end I lost very little blood so it wasn t needed but to have the consultant adhere to my wishes was imperative to me Thank you Mr Shah and your amazing team
