Over the last month I have spent a fair bit of time in and out of various hospitals in London. I…read moream thinking of doing a series. So let's start with the one closest to home. Whilst this isn't the first hospital I have ever been in, in London, it was the first to offer me overnight hospitality and they keep asking me to come back for more. I get the feeling the staff like having me around, or my health issue is more serious than it feels. The staff here are great. Really friendly and welcoming. When I checked in to A&E I was glad to have a friend with me to kill the time but I was seen by triage within 20 minutes and then only had to wait a few hours (it wasn't obviously serious) before being seen by a doctor. The A&E doctor was a nice guy, though I didn't particularly approve of the way he stuck needles into me, it hurt quite a lot (it was in the hand) and since I hate needles anyway (even writing this is making me feel faint) I was throwing up quite a lot. The anti-sickness drugs took effect swiftly and when the blood test results came back I was given a room in major injuries within 5 minutes and a private room on a ward within a couple of hours. Everyone from the porters to the nurses and phlebotomists were amazing, always willing to chat and make you feel included in their lives. My friends tell me the ward doctor was very attractive. I was a little busy being ill to really judge but I can vouch for my friends good tastes. I was impressed with the range of tests they gave me and very grateful that with the NHS I didn't have to pay for any of this. The food on the ward was, average at best however the canteen area was filled with choices and all of which looked delicious. I can recommend this hospital, especially because there is a therapy dog who comes to visit every day and there are lots of local groups who visit the elderly and palliative care patients to ensure that everyone has a visitor during the visiting hours. Whilst there wasn't a tv or a phone in my room the time was passed pleasantly. Ambulatory care is also a very welcoming place to visit as well as just a wonderful phrase to repeat. The staff take good care of you here. If you get truly bored you can always count the pictures of cats scattered around the hospital.

Never Again! I am…read moregoing to write about the worst experience I have even had at the hands of a Doctor in a Hospital. The Whittington Hospital to be precise. His name is Dr. Joquau Kravvas from Thesalonica Greece, and he possesses the worst kind of Greek Male Mysogony that exists. I was greeted with "Why are you wearing two jumpers"? It is very cold possible the coldest day of the year I replied. He explained nothing about the treatment I had gathered from the nurse that he was about to remove some red skin that could possible develop into a cancerous growth, in the event it did not. Dr. Brarrack joked with the nurse that he would 'Have To Remove Half Of My Face' due to what he could see. I certainly hoped not. He drilled ferociously for half an hour. It was relentless. I hope I would;d not be scarred for life. The nurse said the scar would bleed for a week or so. It went on to bleed for over six weeks, I had to visit the A&E of UCHL during the Xmas break as it bled soo much throughout the dressing and I woke up to blood on my pillow for six weeks. This was embarrassing as I was staying with relatives for some of the holiday, Three months late the scar is still there. I wrote an honest review of my treatment and mentioned his name. He had it removed. But I doubt that Yelp will allow vanity struck doctors like him to remove an honest review. I like the nurses in the Dermatology dept. and I like the Italian coffee and soup stand that is parked in front of the Whittington, but I never want to set eyes on Joqau Barrack as long as I live. And I would not wish him to cut a biopsy into anyone\s cheek. Not even in Harley Street which he arrogantly brags about. He drilled by cheek with the ferocity of a farmer drilling a carcass,

I recently bought a consultation & treatment with a special offer through Groupon for an…read moreappointment at Angel Chiropody. My expectations weren't that high, given the cost of the special offer, but it certainly exceeded it by far! So much so, that I'd love to tell others about it. It was easy to make an appointment and I was able to get one with a couple of days notice and around my preferred time slot. There are some parking spaces available on the forecourt (literally right in front of the practice, off street). Else metered parking in the area is really expensive. The practice is fairly easy to find. Nothing posh but nice with lots of products on display in the large waiting area. It's quiet though and I didn't see anyone else come or go throughout my time there. But guessing that if she works on her own, can only see one person at a time anyway. I was greeted by Nagina, the podiatrist and completed a registration card while she took my Groupon voucher details. I then went into the treatment room where we discussed my concerns and she examined my feet visually. Then discussed treatment options while my feet were soaked in a warm foot bath. She then physically inspected my feet, removed some dead skin and performed the treatment. And afterwards, she moisturised my feet briefly. People should remember that this is not a pedicure though! I have no connections with this practice or anyone at this practice this is simply my honest review. Overall I thought the service was very professional and delivered in a friendly manner. A treatment plan was discussed. I was under no pressure to re-book or buy any products. Other than a medicinal treatment I needed for my one foot for ongoing home treatment (at a very small additional cost). I will most certainly return in a couple of months for a follow up treatment.

But on a better note - if that child is in Great Ormond Street, you can be very confident that everything is going to be okay. Because this place might just be one of the most magical places in the world. This is where miracles happen. This is where the greatest Doctors and Nurses in the world are. This is a hospital where kids are kept entertained by clowns and hospital radio, this is the place where children with the worst diseases get healed and where research is carried out to make sure even more get healed in the future. It's a depressing fact that children get ill. You'd think prior to creation that God could have at least made a minimum age for illnesses as 18 or something. Unfortunately, that's not the case, but rest assured this place is doing everything it can to rectify matters.

My son spent long periods of time in the hospital and we had some horrendous experiences here: his blood pressure wasn't checked after an operation for eight hours (until I demended it should be), he was nearly given a double dose of paracetamol (and would have been if I hadn't argued with a nurse), we spent hours listenin to other patient's TVs at top volume even late at night, and the ensuite bathrooms attached to some of the rooms he stayed in were little short of disgusting. I'd say don't expect the worst... but don't expect the best either.

Office is very clean and staff is friendly. The doctor was professional and courteous. He was also very efficient in the tests he needed and I was out the door with diagnosis and antibiotics in hand in a very short time.
