  2. Review titled Worse practice

    by Wajiha Ahmad - Posted on 27 February 2025

    My Wife called an emergency for my daughter, they gave us appointment at 4 pm. We attended there before the time (3:50pm). They said you have to wait 2 hours because there ony one doctor. I can see more than 100 patients waiting for 1 doctor in The hospital. Which is in United Kingdom. Shame🫠. Ok we was waiting until 7 pm. My daughter was shaking for fever, we informed to reception about 3 times that this is my daughter conditions not well, they said complain to government, I don't understand why they said me. Unfortunately after half an hour doctor called us and checked my daughter. Doctor said she is OK. But we are not satisfied because her condition was not good. We came back home as a helpless family. What can we do? Our NHS is Destroyed. Our life in danger.... UK????????

  3. Review titled Disgusting - ulrasound

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Alom UDDIN - Posted on 27 November 2024

    Absolutely disgusting. Appointment was at 0745. Arrived at hospital 0735 and was told that doors don't open until 8am? They are not insured to have people in hospital until then. Waited in the rain. 8am allowed in to the building and no nurses in the appointment room. They walk in at 8.45am!!!! They apologize for the delay due to rain and traffic (both of them). It's the UK! Rain happens! Terrible excuse. Support the NHS? The nurses and doctors, generally yes... but managers? Learn to manage. Serious review need of patient experience. They have clowns running this place. Appointment logistics aren't rocket science. My time is valuable.

  4. Review titled Broken promises and repeat timewasters

    by Anonymous - Posted on 23 September 2024

    My sister has had her depot injections delayed 3 months in a row. You can't call them up to see if it has been ordered and arrived because no one ever answers the phones. We have to arrange child care so as to go in and find out they have not ordered it after waiting 3hrs each time. The previous 2 months they had it after a few days. This time we went in on Wednsday, waited 3 hours, got told it had not been orders with a promise he would order it and to come in on Friday. She went in on Friday, after waiting almost 2hrs to be told it had not been ordered on Wednesday like the person had promised to do but this man did order it infront of them. He said come in on Monday for the depot injection. On Monday we waited 1hr to be told again it had not been ordered, we asked the manager to check again and she said it had been ordered but had not arrived and to come back on Friday: which is 10 days late and I fear my sister may have a psychotic episode with all these delays and shenanigans. I almost believe this is being done intentionally to spreadout the dose, to save on costly injections against the doctors prescription.

  5. Review titled Great Calm and Clean Environment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 20 September 2024

    Very happy with the service I got , all staff were friendly and courteous , hardly any waiting for my Xray, clean facilities and most of all the best thing was the convenience of parking without cost for patients. I had a very good experience.

  6. Review titled Diagnostic centre

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 15 July 2024

    On arrival for apointment for bllod test awaiting 1 week I was told without printed test request they will not perform a test. Having Pdf and link for all is not enough! There is no printer however. Noone is willing to help or print A4 page ( shocking that despite digital era we still need a paper copy ) . I run to 15 min away post office and almost missed long awaited appointment. Does NHS have money to waste - I would have waisted GP and NHS appointment to reorganize again becouse of 1 A4 printed page. I’m shocked. Why does Doagnistic centre doesnt have Printer even if patient has to pay if thay is what they require ???

  7. Review titled Very worrying service

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 May 2024

    I was at urgent care for my prolong sickness. I was among the first patient registered. But waited for 4 hours to see doctor. Something wrong with this place. If you want to say to prioritise based on severity. I can die waiting so long like that. Better ask to go home only. Acceptable waiting time is 1.5 hours. Why on earth, the hospital need 4 hours to see patients.

  10. Review titled Awful service

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 02 April 2024

    I called 111 about an ailment and they booked an appointment at this hospital. After being triaged by the nurse at the UTC, she curtly said there were no appointments for treatment. Further to that, when I asked her to elaborate on my condition, she rudely replied that the doctor would explain. She was very unhelpful and clearly took a personal dislike to me. Very unprofessional.
