On 7 July 2022 my husband brought me to Kiaat Private hospital as I was having terrible pain in my abdomen while on holiday. We arrived at the hospital at 05:30. As we walked into the hospital the receptionist asked me what was the matter, and asked if my husband knows my details. She then send me through to emergencies immediately. The sister took my blood pressure, sugar levels, weight as I arrived. After a few minutes I was taken through to a bed. I only waited a few minutes for the doctor to arrive. I told him the problem. He examined me and told me I would have to go for a scan to see where the pain is coming from. Within a few minutes someone was there to draw blood and put a pain drip on. As soon as my results came back, I was send for my scan. The gentlemen ( Moses was his name if I recall correctly) was so gentle with me and explained every step of the procedure. He also explained that the goodies they were going to inject me with will burn and leave me with a burning sensation.
I was taken back to the emergency unit where we waited for the results. While we waited, the doctor on call returned twice to enquire if the tests have come in yet. The sister by this time has ordered me breakfast - how sweet! Eventually the doctor came back and explained the scans does not show anything, but if the pain persist I should consult my gynecologists'. He prescribed pain tablets and anti inflammatory Needless to say the pain did not go away. When I arrived back at home, I saw my gynecologists and need to go for a operation shortly.
I hereby want to give my compliments to the staff who assisted me for their service. I felt like I was the only patient and everybody was looking after me giving me the best service. THANK YOU! Please give my compliments to your staff. Mrs. M Grobbelaar.
