Listen To Our Patients

This site contains FANTASTIC evidence of the excellence of the service provided by the Blanche Heriot Unit from the people who know best – the patients. The decision-makers have taken no account of patients’ views and are sticking rigidly to their ill-conceived plans to transfer the BHU service to Central & North West Central London NHS Trust who have no intention of keeping the BHU going. Here are some of the latest views posted on the petition site - “They give an invaluable wonderful service which no one else nearby offers! They are absolutely VITAL. They are so thorough and professional better than any GP I've seen because rather than guessing your problem and giving wrong medication they do tests immediately and so caring there. It's the best part of the hospital!!! “ (DP, Surrey) “I am signing because I used this clinic a few times and it's brilliant. My life changed because the help and use of this clinic. I can't believe someone in their clear mind think it's clever to close this clinic.” (JD, Walton-on-Thames) “My wife has received exemplary treatment for a condition that will recur and requires constant monitoring. Ironically the treatment Blanche Heriot has provided over the years will have saved the NHS a six figure sum in terms of surgery which would have been necessary without the early diagnosis, monitoring and wrap around service provided by the unit.” (AS, Walton-on-Thames) “I use this fantastic facility to keep me safe. This service must be offered locally. It's always busy with queues of people needing help or advice. This service must not close.” (IB, Staines-upon-Thames) And here’s one from Shepperton GP, Dr Bilagi: “I'm signing because I work locally as a GP and I find their services invaluable. The patients get a service second to none and will not be able to do without them!!!” All the comments are available to be read by scrolling down to Reasons for Signing - Join the conversation.
