Patient stories

Three people, and what actually happened

A quote about a hospital is only worth reading if it says what was done and by whom. These do, and the numbers underneath them are the ones we report either way.

A clinician examining a small child held by their mother

“My son spiked a fever at two in the morning and I drove here because it was the only place I knew would be open. The triage nurse saw him before I had finished parking. What stayed with me is that the paediatrician who admitted him was the same one at his review three weeks later, and she remembered him.”

Adoma A., East Legon

Paediatrics

“I came in for what I was sure was indigestion. Dr. Mensah did the ECG in the room, took one look, and I was on the ward inside the hour. He also told me what the stay would cost before he admitted me, which is not something I expected to be grateful for and am.”

“Every scan through the pregnancy was with the same sonographer, and every one of them was explained while it was happening rather than afterwards. When the delivery turned complicated the theatre was on the same corridor, and I think that is the only reason this story ends the way it does.”
