Review titled Happy Hospital
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Brian Bailey - Posted on 09 January 2025
I visited today and was again struck by how helpful, pleasant and generally happy everyone was. From the volunteer who showed me to the door of the required department to the staff who carried out the procedure, who were all introduced to me, every single person was amazing. This is not unusual. On all the occasions I've been to the hospital it's been the same. All of us who go as patients often go to a hospital with trepidation and dread. Barnsley manage to lift people's spirits and make us feel better just by there attitude and general demeanor. I would like to thank each and every volunteer, nurse, doctor, technician, cleaner and any who I've missed. Thank you all and carry on doing what you do very well.

Review titled Meticulous care and treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Peter Driver - Posted on 07 November 2024
Visited A & E after a fall which had caused deep cuts to my head and hand. The department was short of staff and there was, understandably, long waiting times. However, the care was meticulous and I cannot imagine anything more that could be done. I was surprised to receive follow up calls from 2 doctors when I arrived home to Cheltenham.

Review titled Forever Grateful
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Katie Robinson - Posted on 22 October 2024
These amazing midwife’s really are a blessing, I had quite a difficult birth but I felt supported from start to finish and I can not thank the three women that helped me enough. Especially the trainee midwife who was so so caring and attentive. I really really appreciate the whole experience.

Review titled Total professionalism
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barry Eldred - Posted on 14 November 2024
From Cleaner to Consultant and back again. Dear Team 34, I was a patient on your ward for elective surgery for the two days of October 21st and 22nd. My care from the whole team was an experience which left me with a deep feeling of gratitude. From the moment of reception when I was greeted and booked-in to the time of my discharge I was treated with smiles, respect, and total professionalism. Everything was explained to me with great care and where appropriate paperwork was provided. It gave me a feeling of great confidence and the belief that I was in safe hands. I am pleased to report that I think that I am progressing well. I am pain free and can see progress on a daily basis. The Consultan's skill has enabled me to look forward to many more years of active life. The decision to operate was discussed and explained with great care and deliberated over carefully considering that I was about to celebrate my 80th birthday! I am indebted to him and his team for an amazing outcome; I just hope he thinks the same when he sees me next! As a patient sitting in my chair I was able to observe the way in which all members of the team collaborated and supported each other. The catering staff with their life-giving tea and recuperative hot buttered toast. The diligence of cleaning staff. The stories of the students from Sheffield Hallam University and their dreams and hopes for careers in nursing: Everyone of them a star in the making. The nurses who ‘loved to’ wake me every half an hour for my vital signs, with there enquiring questions about how I was feeling, and did I have all that I needed. No amount of money could have bought me better care and I am both grateful and proud that this has all happened in ‘my hospital’. You are an exemplar for health care as it should be practiced and for the faultless training which lies behind that care. The two words, ‘Thank You’, seem very meagre but are most sincerely meant.

Review titled Pleasant - Helpful - Informed Staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mrs Wendy Gill - Posted on 15 September 2024
On 14th September 2024, I had an appointment with the Ophthalmology department in Barnsley District General Hospital. The receptionists on duty were efficient and greeted me as soon as I approached the reception desk. I confirmed my name, DOB and address and was asked to take a seat. A few minutes later my name was called and I followed the lady on reception into an examining room. The process of my appointment was started and and I could find no fault with what followed. My treatment was completed and roughly two hours later I was on my way home. Thank you very much Barnsley District General Hospital, for the care your staff took of me. Brilliant service. From a very satisfied patient.
