Phillip Schofield showers praise on the NHS as he return to Bristol Royal Infirmary to thank staff for saving his brother’s life
Phillips's brother Tim required treatment in November 2015
PHILLIP Schofield returned to visit the NHS staff who treated his brother over a year and a half ago.
The This Morning host, 55, and his brother Tim were at Bristol Royal Infirmary on Friday to thank the staff after they worked to save Tim’s life in November 2015 after he fell ill.
At the time of Tim’s illness, Phil described the staff at the hospitals as “astonishing” – and his high praise has not diminished since.
“Family 'thank you' visit today to the incredible team at the Bristol Royal Infirmary who fixed my lovely bro,” Phil wrote on Instagram and sharing a group photo of the staff.

In his gracious post, he also branded the staff: “our angels 😍”.
Then sharing a photo of himself posing with his brother, Pip had more high praise.
“When I walked through this ICU door in Nov 2015 our world was in bits and Tim was in big trouble inside,” he began.
“Today BOTH brothers stood outside with such admiration and thanks to the incredible team. #BristolRoyalInfirmary,” he wrote.
In December 2015, Phil did not hold back when he praised the NHS staff that cared for his brother - who is seven years his junior.
“Back home now & back to work tomorrow after 2 of the most difficult weeks our family have ever been through. My amazing bro is on the mend.
“We will NEVER be able to fully put into words how grateful we are to the incredible team @UHBristolNHS I literally can’t find the words.
“I have seen the absolute best of our astonishing NHS. Not just in the perfect care for him, but also for us, his shocked family.
“You all know who you are. So thank you, THANK YOU from the very bottom of all our hearts, and the heart that matters the most.. Tim’s," he wrote at the time.
