Choosing a hospital

Postby Anne Klepacz » Sun 25 Oct 2009 3:55 pm

People sometimes ask here about hospital eye clinics near them. The NHS Choices website has directories of hospitals which you can search for location and speciality at
http://www.nhs.uk/ServiceDirectories/Pa ... or=Default

As well as providing general information about each hospital, there are also patient ratings of each hospital where patients can comment on their experience.

The excellent NHS Choices website covers only England. A not exact Scottish equivalent can be reached at
