I had foot surgery here two weeks ago. The admission area was lovely but I had a long wait before my surgery. I wish I was told to come only a couple of hours before so the wait wouldn't have been so long. Everyone was great in theatre introducing themselves and explaining clearly what was happening.

The next two days while I stayed on the ward weren't as great. The nurses were busy and despite being in a shared room I hardly saw them and had to buzz if I needed anything which I don't like to do so always left things to the last minute. The nurses were polite and did get my pain relief when I asked. However I had issues with the bed not working and the tv control not working and despite telling multiple nurses nothing was done about it.

The food lady was impatient when it was time to order my food. I wish she had just given me a paper menu and then I would have had time to look at the options. I heard her telling the options to the others in the room and there were things she didn't say to me that I would have preferred. As it was I found hair in my food when it did come and as I feeling sick anyway I couldn't really eat much until I came home.

Overall I was happy with the surgery and the fact I could rest afterwards but not such a great experience on the ward.
