Pre op staff were very nice and caring. The surgery team were just as caring and very skilled. The operation was amazingly successful. The first time in 50 years I have not had to wear glasses. Most grateful.

Review titled Disappointing care
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 February 2024
A long standing Tunbridge Wells resident commented to me recently that patients in a dementia ward had their food placed in front of them but were not fed. She was told that the foreign nurses come from cultures where the relatives do the feeding of the patient. I wonder where is the lead nurse, who naturally should explain our English culture and expect her staff to feed patients if necessary. I daresay many such patients have no relatives who could do this. I am an ex-nurse and I am shocked. Whatever next!

Review titled AMU
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 February 2024
I have spent a week in AMU. The staff have been nothing but helpful, bending over backwards to make my stay as comfortable as possible. At night the staff are incredibly busy but have had time to make drinks, if asked, as well as providing excellent care. The nurses, doctors and nursing assistants go above and beyond. The professionalism of all staff is amazing from the doctors to the cleaners. I have had to stay in many hospitals due to ill health and long standing issues but this has been the best one by far.
