Usually I give Spencer Hospital a 5 star but my recent experience was disappointing. I had a phone call to give me an earlier anaesthetist appointment to the one booked for October only to receive another call some 10 minutes later to say it was cancelled as already given to someone else. Maybe a lack of communication somewhere in admin!!! I was elated one minute and then totally deflated.

Pleasant stay at The Spencer Unit.
I was made to feel very at ease from admission until discharge. The Staff in the Spencer Unit, Margate, were very professional, helpful and reassuring.
The whole experience was better than l was expecting and my Consultant Mr Reddy couldn’t have been nicer from my first consultation to the operation, now hopefully a full recovery.
