Holme Valley Memorial Hospital

Had two surgeries here. The first one went good start to finish, dissolving stitches were used, and scar healed well. The second was not the best experience. Despite having a thorough consultation again on the day of operation, we also went through what was done on the first operation given the fact that everything went well i was told they was going to be doing the exact same for the second which i was happy with. To my surprise after having my coverings off I found the stitches used were the ones that needed to be physically removed. I noticed my wound started to ooze a yellow liquid and …

Absolutely fantastic service by all the staff here. Had an operation on my hand. From pre op appointment to the actual operation its been a pleasant experience. Had to say that I was made to feel important and safe when I was operated on. All the staff were lovely, cannot fault at all. Everyone treated as an equal, with respect and dignity.

Reception staff are very rude to there patients and leave you feeling very upset in the leg and foot department. Patrick one of the nurse specialists who work in that department where I went because of long term foot and leg pain was very rude and patronising,kept raising his voice ,didn't even want to read my notes I brought with me when I suffer with brain fog from my conditions,looked at me like dirt,he couldn't care less.my appointment was meant to last 45 minutes but I was out with 20 minutes. You are meant to feel hopeless.All he suggested was ultra sound scan .his attitude left me up…

I attended the mobile unit for a joint injection. I was extremely nervous as needles are my biggest fear. I had no need to worry, everybody involved in my care were excellent. Very caring, explained everything clearly and even held my hand (very welcome to calm my nerves) I cannot thank the team enought, they were absolutely fantastic. Thank you.
