Testimonials

I am extremely impressed by the services provided by Silent Sounds Communications Ltd for our Deaf Patients. The Trust has only recently started to use Silent Sounds as a backup service but on every occasion that we have called on them over the past 2 weeks they have proved to be reliable and professional. We are extremely grateful to Silent Sounds as their prompt response to our short notice request has meant that our patients have not had their appointments cancelled or disrupted. For example, a request was made after 5.30pm for a 9.00am appointment the following morning and yes, the booking was fulfilled.Excellent Service!

Yolanda, Whittington Health

I wanted to take a few minutes to thank you for all your assistance on Monday 25th April 2016. It was good to meet you and witness your sign language interpretation whilst I was talking to Mr K. I. I met Mr K. I. during the afternoon and he was so pleased and said thank you. Your services have made a huge difference to his overall demeanour and wellbeing.

Alan, Brent CCG

Our Trust has received an excellent service from Silent Sounds. We find any communications with them straight forward with regards to bookings interpreters. The service is very efficient. Face to Face interpreting works well and some patients will tend to like specific interpreters and will request those individuals for future appointments, which we believe shows the quality and standard of their interpreters to be excellent. Punctuality of interpreters is excellent.

Dee, Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Trust

I have been working with Tamami, a Japanese interpreter, since late January on regular basis on late Monday evenings from 7-8pm with one of my clients in my service. Tamami was professional in every single appointment; she was always on time and was able to help build a very positive and helpful rapport between her myself and my client. She has a very friendly approach and has been a big part of my client’s recovery. I cannot thank her enough for all her time and support, she is an absolute star and I wish her all the best with everything!

Abdi Yussuf, Language Services Manager, NW University Healthcare NHS Trust

I just wanted to drop a quick email to show my gratitude towards Arabic interpreter that I had booked today.
She went above and beyond for the call today and helped me out in a difficult situation and handled it all very well and was very professional. I wouldn’t have been able to handle the situation without her. She did additional calls and went over the time to help out the situation.
She really is an asset to your service and cannot thank her enough for all her help today.
