Review titled Amazing hospital
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Amanda Conroy - Posted on 13 October 2024
I had a series of steroid injections in my foot & ankle for pain due to an old fracture done 13 months previously? My consultant was a very kind man who from the very first appointment to me having the procedure done was the most caring doctor. He reassured me from start to finish that he would look after me & sort out my foot & ankle. The nurse checking my obs before & after was absolutely amazing, her care was very professional. She was really kind & considerate with a warm nature. Talked me through the whole procedure, holding my hand while I was having the anaesthetic given to me. After the procedure & I was back in my room she continued to look after me, checking up on me every half hour & doing my obs. My other nurse was kind, caring & very reassuring. I couldn’t have wished for better nurses to look after me.

Review titled Could not fault them!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Marisa Moore - Posted on 25 May 2023
It’s been a week since my operation at the rivers! And had to leave a review because I am so grateful for all the staff minus 1 nurse unfortunately. I arrived for my surgery and was taken straight to my room which may I add is like a hotel room so clean bright airy with a lovely en-suite. Unfortunately the first nurse I initially saw wasn’t very smiley or even seemed like she cared in the slightest. Was very unwelcoming and actually a bit rude and this did make me anxious. The anaesthetist came to see me before I went in for surgery and was very friendly and made me feel much more relaxed! Soon after went in for surgery. I went in for my surgery and woke up to lovely nurses in recovery who were chatty and could tell they were just focused on getting me as comfortable and pain free as possible! Was taken back to my room where the miserable nurse was there with me I did try making conversation with her but was not really interested so left it. But her shift was over and I then had a few of the most lovely nurses I cannot express enough how brilliant they were I really wish I got their names as they made the whole experience so much more bare able! My night nurse was equally just as amazing and she couldn’t do enough for me! Again I can’t remember her name! The morning shift nurse was lovely! And although she wasn’t on long before I was discharged she was very attentive and helpful! The nurses at the rivers are faultless! Apart from one! Thank you so much for all your care

Review titled Operation cancelled right at the last moment
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 February 2023
Was admitted to meadow ward as a day patient (first date had already been cancelled) All observations completed, saw the anaesthetist, and the lady from physio, gowned up awaiting to go down, when the nurse and anaesthetist came back in an hour later to say operation has been cancelled as consultant has not turned up
