Has anyone on this site been Basildon hospital for heart problems ??

The Essex Cardiothoracic Centre at Basildon is considered one of the best. Very caring, if you're under them then you're in good hands. Last year we attended an event there for GWR & the hospital & staff including cardiologist were on hand for advice etc, couldn't have been more helpful.

Thanks for the reply my mum is getting moved there tomorrow

I'm sure she will be very well looked after. Although my husband is not under Essex, at the event last year everyone who was under the heart team praised them for their care. The thought did cross my mind that perhaps we should move to Essex!!

When I used to commute a colleague used to commute from that area. His father suffered a heart attack and they were happy with his treatment - I never knew the clinical details.

Cant fault the place, I did my rehab there and after care there too. The one time after I was taken there for a scare they were brilliant too

The Essex Cardiothoracic Centre is one of the best in the country. I had a triple bypass there a little shy of 2 years ago and have nothing but raise for the care and attention afforded me during my time there. Your mother will be in the best of hands
