“Testimonial.”

My wife first met Dr Oldfield when she had a heart arrest in hospital while being treated for pneumonia . It was mid/evening and he and his registrar were doing a late round when walking past the ward Doris was in, all curtains where drawn and it was clear my wife was in trouble. The arrest team leader said they had been trying to revive Doris for over 30 mins and were giving up. He took over resuscitated her and put her in ICU. Doris ended up with a stroke, 3 months later cardiac bypass and is still alive and well 25 years later. I now see Dr Oldfield and his general and cardiac skills have greatly improved my life and maintained Doris. We are extremely grateful.
