Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sharon - Posted on 05 June 2023
I attended the Forrest Centre Breast Screening Service Department at Northampton Hospital and I cannot fault the service I have received. My mammogram was on time and I received an ultrasound scan shortly after. My whole appointment took 30 minutes. The Doctor and nurses were extremely professional, kind, caring, friendly and reassuring at a very stressful time. I was treated with dignity and respect throughout my appointment. I cannot thank them enough for the service that I have received today.

Review titled Sdec dept visit Sat 14th May 2023
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Chris - Posted on 14 May 2023
I was referred by my GP for an iron infusion. I booked in at reception and was told there was a 4 to 6 hour wait, (just paid £4+ for parking), I was not told this when booked in so was not prepared, no food,drink or book with me. 9 hours later I received my 30 minutes infusion. I was not an emergency, just needed simple predetermined treatment. There must be a better way of dealing with such treatment. The staff were great and where needed looked after me well. At 87 and not well , I could have done without being abandoned for nigh on 10 hours.

Review titled Excellent care and attention in the Heart Centre at NGH
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mark Newton - Posted on 25 May 2023
Following a routine pacemaker check, a possible fault in the box was found which would need further analysis. Within a couple of days I received a call from the Heart centre to go in for a minor day procedure the following day. From arrival first thing in the morning to release in the early afternoon, the courtesy and empathy shown by the whole team was excellent. My designated nurse on the day was particularly informative and had a wonderful sense of humour. This was the first time I have had to use the NHS for an operational procedure for many, many years and I cannot praise those involved enough.

Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 March 2023
No mid wives.mums maybe put at risk . Not enough midwives to cover. Inducing people and stopping and stopping after starting.Ques for breaking waters . Put in Watson ward for new mums in stead of pre labour / labour. Start stop. No communication or notes between nurses and docs. Too many student nurses on, not ready. Poor pass over between staff, days behind each other. No confidence vote. Told blame on goverment

Review titled A&E Visit
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 March 2023
I arrived at around midday was booked in and seen within 2 hours, had scans and blood tests done and ready and waiting for review after about 4 hours. Absolutely no complaints. The doctor I had was wonderful and informative. I wasn't dying so I expected to wait and I was pleasantly surprised. Nurses were great as well.

Review titled Awful receptionist
Rated 1 star out of 5

Took my 88yr old father for a scan in Integrated Surgery today. Greeted by the most surly rude receptionist who really upset him. Not the best start for him as he was nervous. The nurses however were great.
