  1. Review titled Very friendly

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mary - Posted on 10 May 2024

    I accompanied my wife to MCH yesterday for surgery in the Day Unit Opthalmology Dept. We were pleased how friendly and helpful all the staff were. They did everything they could to make us feel at ease. Outstanding care from the whole team. Thank you very, very much.

  2. Review titled Special place

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Julie - Posted on 23 April 2024

    Had minor surgery yesterday and I was treated with care, respect and compassion. Absolutely fantastic team with a wonderful sense of humour making my time with them relaxed and happy. Their commitment should never be overlooked or forgotten, they are a credit to their profession and the hospital they work in. Thank you.

  3. Review titled Rude staff and very unsympathetic!!

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 26 March 2024

    Absolutely shocked with the way I was spoken to by the receptionist (man) also was disgusted with the care I received for my daughter. Was made to feel as if I was wasting time. Horrendous service and will never return.

  4. Review titled 1st class result

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Had the ear bud from my hearing aid stuck deep in my ear, from the lady on reception to the two people I saw who managed to remove it for me, they were just so kind and professional, really grateful to have this in Minehead. They should be proud of themselves. Thank you.

  5. Review titled Too long a wait

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    When you have a sick child with special needs and your kept waiting for hours to see someone I find totally unacceptable especially when the child doesn’t understand her condition and has to wait hours to be seen

  6. Review titled Fantastic staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Kerrie Pierce - Posted on 18 October 2023

    Had to visit minor injuries as my son became unwell whilst on holiday locally and we are 200 miles away from home, so it was a very worrying time. All staff including main reception, minor injuries reception, student nurse and senior nurse practitioner were all so friendly, kind and reassuring. We were seen very quickly, the nurse listened and took her time, reassuring my son and I the whole time. The whole experience was seamless, we were in and out within half an hour. It is a clean inviting hospital and easy parking. You all deserve lots of praise. Thank you

  8. Review titled Good Hospital

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Peter Offin - Posted on 24 July 2023

    While on holiday, partner had tummy pains, she went to Minehead Hospital and was seen by their minor injuries unit who spent an hour and a half checking her out. They contacted her GP and recommended that she make an appointment to attend. We were very impressed the service, it's this that makes the NHS absolutely great.

    I am very sorry for your experience, The MIU's are under huge pressures at the moment and as a sit and wait service there is often a waiting time. If you wish to have this further investigated please contact the Pals team at pals@somersetft.nhs.uk. Regards Hannah
