Which London hospital?

Hi everyone! I hope I'm postic under the right topic as this is my first post here.
I just found out I am pregnant, nearly 5 weeks, I'm over the moon and now need to pick a hospital to book my first prenatal appointment 🥰 I live in Walthamstow (London E17) and I'm not keen on any of the hospitals anywhere near us, they all have horrible Google ratings/reviews and the nearest one, Whipps Cross, is definitely not somewhere I want to be having my baby as I've had a bad experience there before. I know it can vary from one experience to another but I've read too many bad things about all the nearby hospitals to personally feel comfortable about the gamble. So anyway - looking a little further and I was wondering if anyone had any Central/East/North London NHS hospitals to recommend? Thank you!

When I lived in Walthamstow I had my DD in Homerton, it was ok but parking is a gamble and they didn't feed me properly but it was better than Whipps, I've heard that's improved massively though.

I’ve had two babies at the Homerton and the care has been exceptional both times. They have a fantastic NICU unit should you need it, hopefully not obviously but babies are transferred from all over London to there.
