Review titled Ultrasound scan
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 October 2024
I went for my scan on 29 September and it was an horrible experience. The lady who did my scan was so rude. She told me to undress myself in front of her which was a bit awkward to me. I asked her few questions before scan as I was bit nervous but she replied so rudely and was literally shouting on me. The transvaginal scans are bit uncomfortable so I think they should be little bit patient.

Review titled Worst hospital and worst staff
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Tania Khan - Posted on 30 September 2024
I had my Scan at King George Hospital and took me approximately half an hour to find the exact location because the staf sent me wrong directions. I came to the hospital after travelling 2 hours in this condition. They sent me back with their silly attitude that they don't have any record as It was clearly mentioned on my file. All the staf members need to learn basic manners and some politeness. Worst experience ever

Review titled Well done Maple Suite
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lorraine R - Posted on 11 September 2024
Very impressed with Urology’s Maple Suite and thanks go to the staff there for treating my mum. Such a good idea to have a dedicated area where scanning and consultation take place away from the general melee of the hospital. Hope this happens with other departments too.

Review titled Amazing Dr
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Elizabeth Wolfendale - Posted on 03 July 2024
My son partially amputated his finger today and broke it in 2 places. He is only 11. DrMarklew took one look at my sons finger insisted he was given pain relief immediately and advised us to go with him. He dealt with my son the best he could, rushed him through for an x-ray. He came with us and stayed with my son the entire time. He was calling Broomfield Hospital to get through to the plastic surgeons. He kept me up to date with everything he was doing and what was happening with my son. My son is now having emergency surgery tomorrow morning. He did not leave my son's side. He was absolutely amazing! He was kind and caring. He went over and beyond. This review just isn't enough. I wish I could do more to ensure this Dr is praised for what he did for my son today. There is doing your job and then there's going over and beyond. Dr of the year award in my opinion goes to DrMarklew. My son said he is now his friend and he will never ever forget him. Thank you so much!

Review titled Useless and pathetic service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Tina Begum - Posted on 31 July 2024
I arrived at 12:30 pm after being referred to the hospital by my gp. The doctors saw me once at 3:30 pm then left me for an hour before sending me to cdu, where I've been waiting since 4:30 pm. It's now 9:06 pm, and I still haven't seen a doctor. The service is pathetic and poor—how can they expect me to wait this long? I have a newborn and a one-year-old at home, and I've been away from them for hours This service is absolutely pathetic and unacceptable. How can they expect patients to wait this long? I have a newborn and a one-year-old at home, and I have been away from them for hours. This level of care is disgraceful. I strongly advise against coming here if you need timely medical attention.

Review titled Horrible service
by Mohammad Kaushar - Posted on 05 June 2024
I went in the A&E yesterday at 9pm. I have waited the entire night for a doctor but no one was there to attend me. In that room, two mentally unstable person was with us who kept shouting and screaming the entire night. They were slanging everyone. The entire environment was chaotic and all of us who were already sick became more sick because of the chaotic environment. I am a diabetic patient and have requested for dinner and breakfast but didn’t get any food/drink. How do you expect a patient to be waiting in there for 15 to 20 hours without any food??? After a whole night without any sleep and food as a diabetic patient, I felt even more sick by going to the hospital. Then in the morning I could not tolerate it anymore and so left the hospital by giving a withdrawal notice. If this continues like this, we patients will be not willing to go hospitals anymore and better die at home without getting any medical treatments at least we will get some love and care from our family rather be in the hospital.
