BMI Woodlands Hospital reviews

Having had a robotic full hip replacement 4 weeks ago here I would like to share how first class Woodlands Hospital is in every respect. From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted by friendly reception staff who put you …

I had a total hip replacement four weeks ago and I am so pleased with how well I am doing. My surgeon was Mr Webb and he along with his team put me at such ease with the procedure as I was very nervous about the operation. For the first …

From the moment that i walked into the hospital for my surgery procedure, every member of staff, could not have done more, to make me feel welcome, the overall impression of friendliness and professionalism, was nothing short of …

Absolutely fantastic experience from meeting James Webb (surgeon) and having my left hip replacement 3 weeks later. Enjoying my 1-1 sessions with the Physiotherapy team – lots of guidance in the gym and a great app to keep you on top of …

Absolute 5 star service. Thanks to Marylin, Jean and the entire team. Their friendliness put me at ease and I was very relaxed before my spinal injection. Dr Gulve and team are the best and I could not have asked for a better procedure. Many thanks Maria Lewis

all staff were friendly and made me feel at ease. only downside was the nurses were short staffed and I did have to wait over an hour for some pain meds and a while for discharge, this cant be helped I know but when you are eager to get home you want this part done quickly. All in all a lovely clean hospital and caring staff.

I had my knee replaced in September and I was delighted with my treatment at the hospital.
Every member of staff involved in my stay and treatment there treat me with the …

The entire process was very simple, everything occurred when I was advised it would and I couldn’t be happier 4 days after my procedure. I know there’s no guarantee on how long these nerve block injections will last, so for now I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that the pain relief continues.

Had a hip replacement and still recovering but from the initial treatment to surgery, all the Staff, Surgeon Mr Thomas, Anaesthetist, Doctors, Nurses, physios, tea ladies, pharmacist, porters and cleaners, have been exceptional. My …

Absolutely smooth service. Professional and polite staff. Highly organized facility. I had a long history of problems with my lower back. I was recommended to see Mr Al Rawi after I had 2 surgeries in my back! Both were not successful. I …

On 20 March, I had a Total Hip Replacement as a NHS patient at Woodlands Hospital, carried out by Mr James Webb. 4 weeks on and moving freely without a stick, I feel so fortunate to have had such excellent care, pre- and post-op from all …

From arriving to leaving I was looked after by an amazing team of professionals. All the staff made me feel comfortable and kept me informed of exactly what was happening. I can honestly say I couldn’t of been looked after any better.

Trying to book an appointment with radiology department is a waste of time. Kept saying they would call me back but never did. Then they sent my referral back to the consultant saying they’d tried to contact me multiple times. I had 1 …

I went to woodlands hospital as a national health patient to have a total knee replacement. Id been unable to go shopping,take dog out or even clean up some days. Immediately after the op my knee was pain free!! Im 5 weeks on and i ferl …

Booked a dermatology appointment. The system booked in with a cancer specialist. Token apology. Dermatology appointments are heavily invested with emotion. This situation had clearly happened regularly any appointment should have been confirmed to make sure it was with the right clinician. Truly shocking lack of care.

I was welcomed by a very helpful man who showed me where to check in and wait, and asked me if I wanted a drink of water. …

First rate experience in every respect. I arrived at appointed time; was guided to the radiation reception; checked in without any “faffing around”and escorted to MRI machine. Process was explained to me and 45 minutes later I “was out” and …

From walking into the building to coming out to go home, the care I received was absolutely amazing. I can’t thank Mr James Webb and his wonderful staff enough. This is how it should be when you go into any Hospital. 👏👏👏 …

Referred there with a possible hernia. Diagnosed with something else. Consultant didn’t want to know cos the repair wasn’t covered by my insurance. No offer of physio, no advice on weight, no advice on repair. Still wanted to move forward …

The doctor didn’t have a clue what the prices were for my cataract surgery. She started with a price of £2500/£3000 which was then £3000. 3 days later it was £4094. When I queried this increase I was told that Ms Oswal would not treat me.

From initial consultation, surgery and discharge I felt completely confident and involved. All members of staff were wonderful.

Excellent quality of care, staff are fantastic and friendly. Nothing is a problem.
1st choice for surgery in the area.

It is a great hospital. Private rooms with on-suite bathrooms. Staff are fantastic but can get very busy which means long wait times for nurses to come round. This is the same at every hospital however. It is clean and I highly recommend. Stayed there 3 times now.

Very polite receptionist. Great doctors really explain any procedures. No waiting for hours in and out within 35 mins. However there are no footpaths from the car park to the main entrance, saw one woman just had eye surgery having to carefully walk on the road. I think patient safety should be a priority.
