  1. Review titled Superb human medics

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 18 February 2023

    I was admitted by ambulance from another hospital after a positive Lumbar Puncture test result for a Subarachnoid Haemorrhage. Everyone involved with my care were superb. That’s from the cleaners to the consultants and everyone in between. All were gentle and calm - the nurses and more senior folk explained everything well and were reassuring. The ward staff were attentive to my need for pain relief… as well as taking time to reassure me about various tests. The angiograms of my head were completely painless, nothing to be concerned about at all. I can’t speak highly enough of the two wards I was in for a few days. The interventionist radiography team were excellent through the procedure…keeping me informed and chatting it through afterwards.

  2. Review titled Prescription issues

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Sandra cooper - Posted on 15 January 2023

    Had a appointment today 15 January for a ear examination so was issued with a white prescription which was not acceptable at my local chemist only for use at the hospital but pharmacy is closed on Sunday so now have to go to my doctor's hoping to get the correct prescription as the hospital is twenty miles away. Apparently this has happened before so why is it continuing?

  3. Review titled Extremely poor

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 17 January 2023

    Told Thursday to expect the worst regarding my mum and to inform the family. Requested 4 times to speak to a doctor and still been ignored and been given contradicting information on numerous times. What do I actually have to do to find out the truth and actually facts of what's happening..

  4. Review titled Life-saving experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Kevin Watson - Posted on 09 February 2023

    Having been rushed into A&E under blue lights, extreme trouble breathing, was assessed, Cardiologist attended, taken into Majors, moved to AMU, then on to Ward 500. The care and attention received over the ten nights I was hospitalised was nothing short of perfect. The staff were outstanding, understanding, full of empathy, and always professional yet friendly and approachable. My respiratory issue was resolved, now awaiting further examination by Cardiology.

    I was admitted to ward 500 on 28 November 2022 in a rather poorly state I was very well looked after and managed discharge on 15 December 2022. Unfortunately my discharge documents show only my admission date and I require the formal discharge date for my health insurance company. Many thanks for lokking after me so well to to hard working and dedicated staff of ward 500 and all other staff of Hull Royal Infirmary.

  9. Review titled Sent back to my GP

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 06 March 2024

    I had an arranged phone appointment with a professor in gastro, the appointment was completed and I was informed an MRI scan will be arranged and test results checked. I recieved a letter afterwards as well as a letter sent to my GP to say I did not attend the appointment and I was put to the back of the queue. My health has worsened in the time since then. I am scared to go back there if this is their normal practice and way of helping clearly sick patients due to neglect of care. I have already complained through PALS who had a reply from management who say that I did not attend which is not true at all.

  10. Review titled Astonishing care and treatment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Evelyn Cuthill - Posted on 03 November 2022

    I suffered a heart attack on Friday morning at 8.00am. The ambulance arrived within ten minutes. The paramedics were superb and so reassuring. They took me to Hull Royal Infirmary. There, I was diagnosed, received initial treatment and was stabilised. A cardiologist came, explained what the problem was and decided I had to go to Castle Hill for an operation. Within minutes an ambulance was available. As the ambulance arrived at Castle Hill, they were waiting for me and I was taken straight into surgery. An hour and a half later I was sitting up in Ward 28 (CMU) having a cup of tea. I still cannot believe it all happened! The care I received was quite simply outstanding and everyone who saw me was so kind, friendly and reassuring. They were also thoroughly professional. Everything was explained to me very clearly. I can only speak about all the staff in the highest possible terms. What a wonderful department it is and what remarkable people work there. How lucky we are to have you! I shall never be able to thank you enough for all you did for me. You, quite literally, saved my life.
