Review titled gynaecology
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mrs Sandra Barham - Posted on 23 July 2024
I would like to give a 10 star rating to the team. I went to the Oaks for an operation on the 20/6/24. After what turned out to be an investigation by the surgeon as my problem was bigger than expected. I returned home and went to see the surgeon the next week for a full consultation. He was incredible and explained fully his thoughts with my husband and myself. We have now taken a different path with a review in December. Thank you to all your team for their kindness and help. You are all amazing and I would highly recommend the whole team including the office who always answered the non medical questions. Thank you all

Review titled My surgery experience & aftercare
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jake Sheridan - Posted on 19 June 2024
Today, i was at home after spending two nights at The Oaks hospital for my lower back surgery. I would just like to thank my consultant and the nursing team for making my experience second to none. The nurses were very helpful afterwards covering all my needs and I couldn’t have wished for anything better. I would recommend this place to anyone if they are in a position as I was with a debilitating lower back hernia issue. I am still quite sore post operation but I know the pressure on my nerves has been relieved. Looking forward to the coming weeks where I can start to feel like my normal self again. Thank you all.

I had surgery in September which required lots of aftercare by the nurses in outpatients they were kind experienced and very very accommodating to me I could not have asked for better care from them. I would like to say a huge thank you to you all

Review titled Horrible Service and Lost Results!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Jade Norton - Posted on 11 April 2023
My partner has a gastroscopy in March 2023. We were told on the day that 6 biopsies were taken and in 2-46 weeks the results would be returned. Since then we have had nothing since trouble. Our doctors have no record of the procedure ever taking place, let alone the results. I spoke with the secretary for the doctor who did the procedure and they did not know any biopsies were taken even though she did them! It turns out the report produced is wrong which the secretary informed me happens often. I then had to call the NHS co-ordinator and was informed the biopsy results are there and she wasn't sure why I was told otherwise. She told me the results would be sent to my doctors the same day. Then I called again 3 days later and was again told the results would be sent the same day. We are now 5 weeks on with no results being received by our doctors. My partner has been in A&E twice due to this illness but we cannot proceed until the results are produced to our doctors. No one has any urgency or accountability and it is getting beyond ridiculous.

Firstly please accept my apologies for the delay in replying to this review. I am sorry but this was somehow missed. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, I have discussed this with our complaints leads and on speaking with our Clinical Performance Lead she has advised me that she has since spoken with you and your partner and discussed the issue in full. Thank you for providing your feedback, we value feedback from all our patients. If you have any further reason to discuss this issue then please contact Louise Cooper or Clinical Performance Lead by email louise.cooper@ramsayhealth.co.uk who will be able to direct this accordingly.

I have had cause to be provided with surgery and care at The Oaks twice in the last two years. The care was just wonderful from start to finish. A kind and professional team that were friendly and attentive. I would elect to go there again if ever I needed to. They were amazing. Thank you
