  1. Review titled Paediatric A/E

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 16 May 2024

    Have unfortunately had to use the paediatric A/E at BDGH twice now in the last couple of months, due to injuries obtained at school. Both times, the nurses, radiologists, and nurse practitioners and orthopaedic surgeons were extremely efficient, kind, prompt and delivered timely care and diagnosis. I haven't got a bad word to say. Faultless service. So grateful for the NHS. Barnsley paediatrics are getting this right! Well done!

  7. Review titled System failure?

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by James Hewitson - Posted on 15 April 2024

    After referral from my optician, I was invited to the department surprisingly quickly for a timed anppointment and was seen for vision test and pressures test very quickly. But then I had to wait over two hours before being seen by a doctor. The department was very busy and I expected to be patient but it was only when I suggested to a member of staff that I thought I’d been forgotten that I was seen immediately by a doctor, when the examination and treatment was excellent. I wonder if there was a system failure that resulted in my having to wait so long for this treatment after arriving for a specifically timed appointment? It seems more a problem than just running late.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Ian - Posted on 01 May 2024

    Referred by GP to en&t because of concern over potential throat tumour. Appointment was offered within a week and consultant was kind, caring and very informative. Outcome was much less serious than feared.

    My daughter cut her head open and we wasn’t even there half an hour she was seen straight away and they glued it and was sent on our way. The staff were so polite and made my daughter feel so comfortable!

  10. Review titled Amazing care over 4 years.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mcewan Wheeldon - Posted on 26 April 2024

    How do I start? Started as an outpatient almost 4 years ago. Ear problem. Because of other health problems, operation was not possible. My consultant sent 3 "heavy letters" to my local doctor, and after a review, they changed my treatment! In effect, long term, the consultants' care and letters have changed my life. Because my general health has improved so much, my ear was operated on at Barnsley hospital, Monday 15th. The care at Barnsley hospital.... Ward 36, one overnight stay. From walking onto the ward to discharge, nothing was too much trouble. The guys who operated and put me to sleep, smashing, funny, full of kindness. Please pass on my thanks, On going onto ward 36, within minutes asking about pain, drink, food, checking and redressing my dressings (they hurt). All with a smile. Staff are amazing. Not just with me but with all others within my line of sight. My bladder packed up, meaning I told staff I was not weeing. Within 15 minutes this lovely ward Sister had me scanned and catheter put in, she did this herself. (night shift). Bag still on, at home now. This lovely lady removed my pain as quickly as she could. Discharge.... Sent down to the discharge ward (I think ward 16), from walking onto the ward, asked if I needed food, seated and waited for medication. The nurse explained what to use and how to use it, no rush, explaining in full. So, from starting treatment with Barnsley almost 4 years ago, the consultant has changed my long term care for the better, the guys have operated and fixed my ear, Ward 36 are amazing! Discharge unit is very helpful. In 27 years, 14 operations, in both private and n.h.s. hospitals, Barnsley hospital without doubt, the very best I have ever been in. Please pass on my feedback to theatre staff a real big thankyou to Ward 36 (I cannot say this loud enough) and the discharge ward. Please make sure All gets to read this, on the ward, in the theatre. Please make sure all staff know they are valued. All the bosses need to read this, I'm dyslexic and took an age to write! Thank You all. Mac.
