I recently had a c section at the Lister hospital and would 100% recommend my experience there - the kindness and outstanding care provided by all of the staff who looked after me was second to none. From the midwives in Dacre Ward, to the anaesthetist who took so much time to discuss womens concerns with them, to the amazing team in theatre who did so much to put me at ease and make the experience less scary. Then the lovely midwives and nurses who looked after me and my baby while in recovery before I was transferred to the Gloucester Ward. The standard of care from every single member of staff I met was exceptional - especially the midwives and nursery nurses who did so much to make me and my daughter comfortable, helping me establish breastfeeding, settling baby so I could get some rest and making the whole experience such a good one - something people rarely say about any postnatal wards!! I was lucky enough to be able to go home after 24 hours and I believe a lot of this was down to the excellent immediate care I received and of course the high quality of the surgery and operation itself. Thank you to everyone at the Lister for ensuring that me and my daughters first few days together were such a positive experience, hugely down to the professionalism, warmth, empathy and friendliness of all the staff.
