Review titled Great service from all staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 August 2024
Had a short stay in the gastro ward alongside AMU and SDEC. All the nurses are absolutely fabulous very kind, caring and supportive. The ward staff also do a wonderful job. The care at lister is amazing and cannot recommend the staff enough. Please keep up the great work - you make a huge difference in patient care just by doing a good job

Review titled Met with a smile. Minimum waiting. Perfect experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jackie - Posted on 06 August 2024
Level 4 appointment for small BCC on my ear on 5th August. Greeted by a smiling receptionist then shown to a comfortable chair and offered biscuits and a drink. After confirming details with a nurse the doctor discussed alternative treatment which eliminated a skin graft. Thank you. Procedure went well with very friendly caring staff and even given a sandwich afterwards. This is the standard of a private hospital. Much appreciated

Review titled Terrible experience
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 December 2024
I recently had a long couple of stays at Lister and encountered multiple issues. I dealt with multiple dismissive and un-empathetic doctors. Had doctors not take my symptoms seriously I was sent another patients results and medical paperwork. I received someone else's drugs in my discharged medication A doctor told me I was pregnant as a 'joke' when giving me abdominal CT scan results, which was incredibly inappropriate. Levels of cleanliness widely differed Lack of communication and terrible organisation Witnessed agency staff practically ignoring patients needs Witnessed other patients having to help other patients due to a lack of staff or interest from the ones who were there Weekends become notoriously worse in terms of care I had a bad reaction to drugs, had a panic attack and was totally dismissed by a nurse and just told to get back into my bed Treatment was delayed and changed resulting in worsening health I did receive good care from a handful of nurses who would go above and beyond and I was very happy with my surgeon and stoma nurses but overall would go as far as saying my stay was pretty traumatic and I felt very unsafe at points.

Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Katy - Posted on 10 August 2024
When we arrived there were 4 children in the waiting room and we waited more than 3 hours to see a doctor.The waiting time was too long considering there wasn’t a busy time at all.

Rated 5 stars out of 5

I recently had difficulty accessing the patient hub because I don’t have a Smart Phone. I contacted the communication team and had a an excellent response which helped me access the hub. The officer who assisted was very efficient and quick to respond.

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mr D Evans - Posted on 14 August 2024
I tried to talk to the Cardiology department regarding appointments. When i phoned the number 01707 247512 the message said she was on holiday and to call 01438 284444. I did this and was told i was number 28 in the queue, I gave up.

Review titled Amazing service from A&E
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Carpenter - Posted on 07 July 2024
I took my son who had severe chest pains and had a brilliant service from the excellent health professionals at the A&E dept. We were lucky that the section of the unit we were at, wasn't too busy when we arrived and he was triaged fairly quickly and pain relief administered. It was quickly decided by the team for steroid and nebuliser treatment, this was followed by a complete health check which included bloods, chest xray and antibiotics. Though it was a long wait for results and ongoing treatment plan to be finalised, before being discharged, the care and assurances from all the staff was beyond amazing and helped my son relax in what was initially a stressful situation for him.

Review titled Great hospital
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I called 111, had a lovely call handler. Received a call back within 5 minutes. They booked me in to be seen within the hour. (I did not know which hospital would be closest as I was away from home, the lovely call handler stated she lives not far from where I was staying and recommended Lister as it is closer). From arriving, to being seen, I was in and out of the hospital within 20 minutes. Amazing service all around, thank you for everything you do!
