"Heart Attack"

About: Royal Perth Hospital / Cardiology Care & Clinic

(as the patient),

Recently had heart attack, some what surprised as my only risk factor was a recent gain in weight. I had also had several stress tests and an ECG over the last couple years.

I had ignored warning symptoms in the days approaching the attack in the early hours of the morning as I didn't think I should be having a problem.

My wife called an ambulance and they arrived promptly and efficiently had me off to RPH in Perth, great service.

Without any holdup I was taken straight into emergency assessed and moved into the cardiology ward. They delayed the angiogram until latter in the day.

I had two stents installed. I can only say the facilities, care and support was outstanding and I have no complaints at all. They whole process was amazing. Well done to the WA medical system.

Dear Frist,

Thank you for taking the time to make contact with Care Opinion to share your recent positive experience at Royal Perth Hospital (RPH).

Your recognition of the prompt assessment you received in the Emergency Department (ED) and the crucial care and treatment the Cardiology team implemented is greatly appreciated. It is reassuring to know that RPH was able to provide such essential medical care in an environment where you felt the support was outstanding and this had such a positive impact on your hospital journey.

I have forwarded your feedback to both the ED and Cardiology departments who will share your encouraging words with their teams.

I hope you are recovering well and I wish you all the best.

Kind Regards,

Ben Noteboom
