Llandough Hospital has an excellent reputation for care, cleanliness and facilities. Considering…read morethat this is an NHS Hospital, that's even more impressive (not that it's good, but that it has a good reputation). From the outside this hospital has a whole lot of charm. It's one long and tall brick building that seems to levitate on the top of a hill overlooking Penarth. Lots of gardens and space and flower beds add to the atmosphere of an old fashioned place. It's respectable in its traditional nature. And, now wait for it, because this is kind of cool, they have the world's first ever high definition MRI. Whoohoo!

As a Grangetown resident Llandough is my local. It is also the place I got my baby scans, came for…read morecheck ups and did an antenatal class. The building itself is old Victorian brick, much smaller and better laid out than the sprawling Heath Hospital. The vibe here is also much more chilled, less traffic, less urgency. I visited the midwife led unit as part of the antenatal class in order to weigh up my options. The unit is like a four start hotel - spacious rooms, double beds with duvets, birthing accessories and birthing pools. This is the place I wanted to give birth. Unfortunately with an old pelvic injury I was advised to go to the Heath hospital where they had surgeons on hand. If there were complications I would have had to wait for an ambulance like everyone else. If you drive here by car no need for coins, rather fantastically, unlike most other hospitals parking is free.

Wow, I can only say life changing, I went to see Gareth after a few friends had recommended him…read more I've tried doctors and physio's had x-rays, mri etc. I've even seen a spinal surgeon. So i thought what have i got to lose and it was the best decision I've made. My bad back was not the problem it was the associated pain in my Hip, leg and dead foot. So I found exercise a chore and being overweight didnt help. I booked a package of sessions, where after two I'd already noticed a huge difference. I've now completed my treatment with Gareth and I can only say that he is a weird miracle worker, his methods seemed a little strange at first but as he works he explains everything as he go's along and all makes great sense. I now have no pain at all in my hip, I could barely stand for 15 mins and sometimes walking was excruciating. Now I've started to regain feeling in my foot, my calf is better than ever. I've been able to go running and I've lost 2 stone. I cant thank Gareth enough and several friends and family have now visited him for treatment, again with some amazing results.

When I took my last job I was offered a dental plan as part of the benefits package. Seeing as I…read morehadn't been to a dentist in a number of years, and the last time I saw one was at hospital when they pulled the tooth (see my review on the university hospital), I thought it would probably be a good idea to get myself a dentist in the city centre. After asking around I was directed to this little street just off of St Mary Street. I gave them a call, explained I didn't have a dentist and that I would be paying for treatment. I soon had my appointment and couldn't wait to go and see the dentist (there was a sarcastic tone which you probably didn't detect there, I hate visiting the dentist). What I found was that the waiting times were fairly short provided you arrived on time, after filling out a form I was soon in the dentists chair and this guy had his hands in my mouth checking out my pegs. He advised me that I would need some fillings and that he was quite surprised my teeth were in such good condition considering how long I had left it until now. He then told me I could make an appointment at reception for the fillings and also to visit the hygienist upstairs. I was surprised when the receptionist told me I could go straight up to the hygienist as there was a time slot available immediately. I left here with bight, shining white teeth, feeling a million dollars and confident that my return visit in approximately one weeks time would be as painless as possible. And it was too. This is a very good dentist, and I don't like dentists in the slightest so take from that what you will.

I don't really associate spas with dentists, do you? I tend to think of them more as those places…read morethat you eat carrot juice and get colonic irrigation and boring, uncomfortable things like that. And I do mean you, not me. You'd never catch me at a spa. Still in the case of Quay Street, this is a dental clinic. Weird, huh! In fact Quay Street is a Denticare clinic. Denticare currently provides NHS dental care in practices in England and Wales and 'are committed to providing high quality, patient focused dentistry in a clean, safe, professional and friendly environment.' In this case, the Dental Surgeons are Graham Richards and Maria Neves. The Hygienists are Sharon Jones and Louise Pellatt. The available Dental Plans are NHS and Denplan Essentials.

Andrews Dental Clinic has come up in conversation quite a few times in recent months. A good friend…read moreof mine has been dealing with them on behalf of her mother, who sadly had a stroke about 6 months ago. She is on the road to recovery at the moment, but has sustained a couple of injuries when she has fallen in her efforts to do more than her condition allows, one of which resulted in her losing her dentures, which fractured when landed beneath her. Discussions have taken a curious and comical route to us both knowing an awful lot about dentures way before our time! We have both become a little obsessed with them if the truth be known.
