Review titled Excellent staff and coordination of service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 20 March 2023
Was seen promptly, informative and thorough assessment. Kind and professional doctor. Was sent for x-ray at another department, all information was aligned and received by the right people straight away. Very quick, easy. Very impressed with my experience today.

Review titled Great team
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Couldn’t fault anyone on such a great service. Times may have been long but I understand it’s the times we are in. Staff remained friendly throughout and answered straight away when I called for pain relief

Review titled The paramedic in charge of MIaMI, just fantastic!
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Nisha - Posted on 02 February 2023
What a lovely experience I had today in the A&E - other than my pain obviously. The paramedic in charge of the MIaMI department today (02/02/23) was amazing! He was reassuring, thorough and kind in assessing and explaining the issues I had. Even though I can’t mention his name I hope he is recognised and understands what a wonderful human he is. Whilst being bombarded with patients all day (I was there 6 hours) he remained courteous and patient. Thank you very much.

Review titled Painful ear
by Kingywingy - Posted on 24 February 2023
Had terrible pushing pressure in my right ear ..I thought it was infection however my doctor sent me to triage ward 9 where they cleared the right ear though it was extremely painful the lady in blue scrubs was extremely thorough. Even had the doctor to come and put a camera up my nose to check internally .. however after several hours later I’m now pain free So swift care and knowledge saved me from further pain SO A HUGE THANK YOU

Review titled Hearing services appointment
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 February 2023
I attended the hearikg services department on Sunday February 19th for a hearing test and review of my hear aids. The audiologist was very pleasant and helpful. I didn't feel rushed and he listened to my concerns and answered my questions and explained things. I was seen within 7 minutes of my appointment time. Very satisfied with the appointment.

Review titled Rude and unapproachable
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 21 February 2023
I came with my mum as she was discharged from hospital and she complained of pain and similar symptoms of her original infection. The staff were not compassionate and i found them to be unapproachable when asking for advice, also i observed them behaving like this towards others. We were dismissed from the department and made to feel like my mothers health problems were obsolete and not important. NHS needs to train staff who actually listen to people’s needs and not dismiss them as people would not sit in a waiting area for 10 hours if they did not have a problem needing immediate attention.

Review titled No Answer
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 February 2023
I have been trying to reach Gynaecology at the LRI (0116 2586747) as per referral letter from my GP as I have not heard from them since my referral, however after 63 attempts there is still no-one answering the phone and no option to leave a message to be called back, this is really annoying and dis-heartening

Review titled Smoking
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 22 January 2023
Absolutely disgusting that smoking was allowed outside of the entrance of the maternity building! I witnessed at least 4 people of 3 that were pregnant or had recently given birth smoking in the space of 10 mins whilst waiting to pick up my son who's wife had given birth. Also only allowing 1 person at a time at this special time to visit is awful yet families with 4 children could stay around the bed. At least provide somewhere and something to sit on if you insist on carrying on this ridiculous situation.
