  1. Review titled Brilliant Service and lovely staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Fiona Chapman - Posted on 16 November 2023

    Have been 3 times recently , once for a consultation, once for a pre operation procedure and then for the procedure itself . Extremely happy on all 3 occasions. Very smiley happy staff .My pre op appt was lunch time so I chose to pay for parking on a local driveway which worked well , 7 minute walk . I had heard that parking is always a nightmare when you have an appt to get to as there’s never any space . One day I hope there will be the funding for a much larger car park . I am sure there are far more important priorities though . Staff are fab , well done . Parking is difficult. Thank you for your care .

    Seen in A&E in early hours of morning, referred to orthopaedics due to severe back pain. Excellent, professional, friendly staff in A&E, Notley Ward, Porters, MRI unit. Working under great pressures they provide an excellent service and I am grateful to every member of staff I dealt with. Thank you Broomfield hospital for your care and professionalism.

  3. Review titled Parking

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 06 November 2023

    Parking as a patient is extremely difficult. My relative works as a staff member and has to commute by public transport even when she has a car to drive there as the staff multi storey does not have enough spaces. The lack of spaces is absurd. The hard working clinical staff at least deserve a parking space to be able to do their job.

  5. Review titled Exemplary Care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by G Elliot -Monk - Posted on 19 September 2023

    Spent a week on Tiptree ward, Broomfield, surrounded and cared for, by compassionate, positive, professional staff. The whole experience, from the vital role of medical and mental care, all the way through to the no less important care and attention, given by the catering and cleaning staff, vital parts to ensure the safety for all, especially those like myself, at a vulnerable time. Tiptree ward, Broomfield, seems an especially highly active place, as I have a reoccurring situation that insists of short hospital stays, I can say with some experience, that Tiptree ward, Broomfield, maintains an exemplary high level to their care and attention to patients. Smiling through some of the most arduous shifts, that I witnessed myself. I would like to personally thank them, for making my stay both positive and inducive to my healing and getting better. I hope you will forward these comments to all, as they deserve to know, that all that that they do was seriously appreciated.

  8. Review titled Excellent treatment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Letitia - Posted on 26 September 2023

    I had to go to A&E suffering from a TIA and the treatment I received was 1st class. Within 2 hours of arriving I had been assessed by doctors, had 2 scans a blood test an ecg and an eye test and was admitted to the stroke ward for further tests and observations. During the 24 hours that I was on the ward I was treated with the utmost care by the nurses and doctors there, also I observed the kindness, care and patience that was given to the other patients and visitors on the ward by all the nurses on duty. Thank you all for your treatment and kindness.

    I was taken into a&e on Saturday evening. The service I received was fantastic, seen timely, informed by doctors all throughout the plan, I had recent heart surgery and had post surgery complications which were diagnosed quickly and treatment started. I was able to be discharged the following day with a forward plan in place, I and family felt listened to, respected and felt confident and reassured with my treatment plan, Thankyou to all staff involved, nurses, doctors , porters etc
