“After an emergency appointment for a scan this morning, I would like to say a very big thank you for all the kindness and consideration and help I was given today when I was aware of how busy Heath Lodge is and how grateful I was that I was seen to so promptly.
The clinic is immaculate and so professionally organised, the whole experience for me, when I was in considerable pain, was such a huge relief as I was very worried about how I would cope .
My particular thanks to Mandy and Charlotte who were wonderful and so careful with me, I was so impressed and extremely grateful.
Please pass on my appreciation to all concerned.”

“Claustrophobic patient – top service!
I visited Heath Lodge for an MRI yesterday on my back, after failing at another MRI due to claustrophobia.
Heath Lodge were fabulous with me even before my actual appointment.
However, the day came and to be honest I was terrified. My sister came along, due to possible sedation happening, but I’m so pleased to say I didn’t need the sedation in the end. Yes I was scared, BUT the actual MRI scan was nothing like my mind had pictured it.
The machines are amazing but what really puts you at ease are the wonderful staff, without them it would have been a much more challenging process – I am forever grateful.
Additionally, the fact they let my sister be with me and she was able to hold my shoulder and reassure me was above and beyond my expectations and really allowed me to get through the scan (alongside the regular updates and talking through the process by the consultant). Thank you so much – my experience of an MRI before that had been terrifying but you’ve done so much to ease my mind and if I need another MRI I’d certainly be back to Heath Lodge. Thank you again.

“I just wanted to drop you a quick message to thank everyone involved in my treatment and aftercare this morning for the professionalism, care and kindness that I was treated with.
I couldn’t of wished for any more.
I strongly believe that when people treat you with such kindness and care that it should be acknowledged and everyone I met at Heath Lodge from the Initial contact, to my MRI scan and through to today have all been wonderful.
In a society where people are so quick to criticise and find fault that it’s really important to show appreciation for a positive experience.
I volunteer as a Mental Health First Aider and have also been volunteering alongside the hard working staff at my local GP Practice since day one of vaccination program and know how precious it is to reassure people and be warm, friendly and positive.
Working in a medical or care profession is a vocation and not just a job.
All of you at Heath Lodge Clinic do a first class job in providing not only exceptional clinical services and care but in the personal care that makes all the difference.
Thank you. “

Initially I was anxious due to past bad experience elsewhere but I now feel really empowered going through that and it was down to the two radiographers, the doctor and the nurse (Sue, Claire and Caterina) who helped me in recovery after the scan. They were so calm, patient, caring- just amazing.
They really looked after me and put a smile on my face.
I also had a great cup of tea- something which I am really particular about- it was just what I needed! Time in the scanner flew and I even feel I could have stayed in longer- not that I wanted to!
They were all fantastic and transformed what was once a stressful experience and fills me with anxiety, into something so relaxing.
This has been a major accomplishment for me and its down to this team- this has been life changing for me and I think next I won’t be as nervous next time. I also think the sedation helped my throat, as that is what causes me problems when I lie flat.
If I ever need a procedure again that I need to be in the tunnel I will definitely be coming back.
Thank you for looking after me and making this such a positive experience.”

Sue the Radiographer made me feel at ease as soon she met me in reception and carried on to do so all the way through, everything was explained step by step and nothing was rushed. I also got the same attention from another Lady that was in the scanning room (sorry I have forgotten her name). Dr Beale was also very nice and reassuring.
My experience here has taken away some of the feeling I’ve had since trying to be put into a normal MRI machine, this will certainly be the place for me to go if I need any more MRI procedures.

When one is feeling vunerable with often our own version of what MAY be wrong it’s a joy to be met with kindness. I was vunerable with health issues and TERRIFIED of the MRI scan that was to prove of such great value. I’m claustrophobic. From that first phone call I was reassured all would be well. I tried to believe them.
My appointment time came and I was sick to my stomach nervous! I needn’t have been. The scanner was wide and short and both ends open. I was talked to all the way through. Apart from when I was singing! The Radiographer was perfect.
Then …… came the need for a DXA scan. On the 19th September. Different operator same high standard of care and concern. She had the patience of a saint and did her utmost to do her most important job without causing my painful bones more stress! Bless her.
Furthermore……. can there be MORE? YES there is!! I needed the copy report of my MRI and my GP wouldn’t send it to me!! Following necessary protocol the lovely bookings girl sent it to me! She phoned and let me know she’d do it. She went above and beyond. I shan’t forget her kindness. And she was up against a very tight time frame indeed.
Thank you to all there at Heath Lodge Clinic. And to prospective new patients….. you’re in good hands. In more ways than one.”

I don’t suffer from claustrophobia but for anyone who does or have other concerns I am sure you will find their 3D scanner a pleasant experience.
You are able to lay back & watch relaxing images on a screen along with relaxing music in the background (how good is that?!) there is also a timer so you can watch & know how long each part of the scan will take.
The whole process was only 30mins including the preparation before & after. Most segments of the scan were as quick as a few minutes.
The clinic is not “clinical” as one would think but more like stepping into someones home! The place was spotlessly clean in all areas & very strict covid measures are in place.
I had never heard of this clinic before & as someone who has had numerous scans over the years in private hospitals in the Birmingham area I do think we patients are very fortunate to have this “gem” of a clinic in the Midlands.
The time it takes out of ones day to get a scan done is very small in view of what follows – a diagnosis leading to (in some cases) life saving treatment, or like me new medication & peace of mind following health concerns. The results were with my consultant ready for a telephone consultation within less than 7 working days.

I am overjoyed to say that due to the use of an ingenious mirrored device – which fools the brain! – alongside the empathy of the staff I was able to undergo this MRI without sedation .
In fact as I was lying there I actually thought ‘I could lie here all day long ‘
My claustrophobia is pretty extreme so I would encourage anyone – before your sedation at least ask to give the mirrors a go, they worked for me !!!

The report was with the hospital by the time we arrived, an exceptional turn around and a true testament to how much they care for their patient. To be able to offer such compassionate, kind and expert service during “normal times” is a credit but being able to provide this level during covid safe measure is beyond outstanding.

I suffer from the worst type of claustrophobia. I cannot even wear a watch or a ring. In the past I have had a total of 6 MRI scans which were absolutely horrendous and terrifying. I never stopped shaking and sweating throughout.
From the first contact with the Heath Lodge Clinic I was reassured by the very professional and friendly receptionist. On arrival at the Heath Lodge Clinic I shook from head to toe, all the staff realised I was absolutely terrified. Everything was clearly explained to me. They gave me every reassurance possible. The doctor administered the sedation, the next thing I knew was that the MRI scan was complete approximately 35 minutes later. I was taken out of the scanner and sat in a reclining chair and gave a very nice cup of tea and a selection of biscuits.
If the need ever arises for me to have another MRI scan I would definitely only go to the Heath Lodge Clinic. The reason being they are the best of the best and at every opportunity have the patients interest at heart demonstrating team concept in everything they do.
May I take this opportunity to thank them all in their marvellous way they looked after me.
I will never be terrified to have another MRI scan again, words cannot express how much I appreciated your professional support.

““ I have extreme anxiety when I have to leave the house at the minute due to my weight and being constantly ridiculed by complete strangers that I have resulted to staying indoors and not mixing with anyone, so todays appointment was a lot for me to do. As soon as I met Claire at the door, she completely put me at ease with her warm friendly manner and told me each process before doing it so I knew what I had to do! When I went into the scan room Claire and the other lady helped me so much and didn’t make me feel self-conscious or embarrassed about my appearance. They spoke to me and constantly made sure I was ok in the scanner and just let me know they were there.
These 2 ladies are a credit to your company and I really can’t thank them enough, so to whoever receives this e-mail if you could once again thank them for me, and apologise to the lady whose name I have forgotten.
I now know that if for any reason I have to go through this again that I will have absolutely nothing to worry about.”

“The girls have been absolutely fantastic, and although I know I may have been a pain constantly calling them whilst I was getting to grips with running the admin for the MSK clinic while our other administrators were furloughed, they were always more than happy to help and went above and beyond to assist me. They really are a credit to Heath Lodge!”
