Review titled Unbelievable experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Scott R - Posted on 04 March 2023
So impressed with the minor injury centre. From arriving to leaving was less than 40 minutes including X-ray. Diagnosed with fractured wrist and now referred to Rotherham Hospital for fracture clinic. Polite and efficient staff. Thank you.

Review titled Turned away
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 29 March 2023
Upon arriving tonight at approximately 18.30 with a swollen foot I couldn’t bear weight on I was asked by the receptionist how I had hurt myself to which I replied, “I got up this morning and it really hurt and has got worse through out day”. The receptionist then asked but do you know how you’ve have done it? To which I replied no. Then I mentioned I fractured my 5th metatarsal 2 years ago to which the receptionist said well we can’t see you then you have to go to your GP. I explained I was in pain and tried ringing my GP but they were closed for training. Was then told I would have to go to DRI. Surely this can’t be right as it’s not an emergency but a minor injury which on the website says you should attend montague. I am now sat back at home in pain and without diagnosis.

Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Dave Horton - Posted on 12 March 2023
Had an appointment on Saturday morning.Everyone very friendly and efficient. I had a problem initially getting in the department I was visiting because all the doors were locked. May have been because it was first thing on Saturday . I was pleasantly surprised because the car park was free.

Review titled Oral and Maxillo-Facial
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Bridgette Perks - Posted on 01 April 2023
Attended the Oral and Maxillo-Facial to have a coronectomy on Friday 31.3.23. 8.30am. From entering the building, seeing the lift notice which brought a smile, onto the receptionists, nursing staff and Dr who performed the procedure I couldn’t have received a more welcoming, kinder or professional service. It was explained what to expect before, during and after surgery and because of this I just knew I was in the best of hands and I felt thoroughly cared for from start to finish. The pain management was excellent during and post, the way they explained each step, happily answering any questions and being made to feel ‘human’ not just a ‘another patient’. The entire experience was one which I cannot fault in any way… No one likes surgery or dentists but I can honestly say the entire team made my experience a thoroughly positive one. Huge thank you guys.

Review titled Very poor
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Andrew clarke - Posted on 13 February 2023
Went for an xray on my hand, couldn't get past the 'receptionist' how can someone who is an admin refuse to send me for an xray telling me I need to see a GP. I saw my GP this morning who specifically told me to go to Mex for an xray. Its a minor injuries clinic. Diabolical customer service. Would not recommend as they clearly want rid of people, funny how it was 30 minutes before closing time

Thank you for sharing with us your recent experience at Montagu Hospital. I am sorry to hear how upset you were with this experience. It is important to note that this clinic only accepts admissions until 8pm, but closes at 9pm - this is so that the team can fully treat the final patient admissions. Perhaps this could be the reason you were turned away. If this was not the situation, I would advise you to contact our Patient Advice & Liaison Team to discuss. You can contact them on: Tel: (01302) 642764 / Freephone: 0800 028 8059 or email: dbth.pals.dbh@nhs.net. Best wishes, Libby

Review titled Outstanding service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mick Hay - Posted on 27 February 2023
Attended the Urgent Treatment Centre on Sun 26th Feb with a suspected fractured leg. Receptionist was kind, considerate and efficient. All within 30 minutes I was seen by a nurse, had an X-ray and then diagnosed with a fracture. The staff were outstanding, thank you all very much.

Review titled inadequate service!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 13 January 2023
After checking webiste for services attended, after a fall. To be greeted and spoke to rudely when told the reception staff my presenting complaint and told i would not be seen. I asked if it was a ANP led service to which i was told yes, i asked to speak with one and the ANP refused to come out and speak to me and told the receptionist to say it was against protocol. And go to ED or my GP, i work for the NHS myself and suitibly qualified to deem i did not need to clog up ED for this issue. It is about time the website was updated to problems that ANPs refuse to see/treat! Also i find it discusting as ANPs have passed Apac's module as part of their training which includes MSK that they refuse to treat certain MSK issues. No care or compassion given.

Review titled What is it’s purpose when you get refused & sent to A&E
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 January 2023
Was advised by a nurse friend to visit this department due to illness on a Sunday , when I arrived I was turned away & told to go to A&E they only deal with injury’s yet website says otherwise. This didn’t first time, no wonder people are waiting 11 hours in A&E when these services are empty & turning people away

Review titled Ignored and dismissed
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Julie O’Mahoney - Posted on 15 March 2023
brought my son in - suspected glass in a cut in his foot. Was refused to be seen initially until my GP practice told me to return. Was then seen and spoke down to telling me it was a verruca. My som received an xray but me and his Dad were made to feel we were ‘over reacting’ Again told it was a verruca. Months later, after using over the counter verruca treatments my som was still in pain walking. He is 5 and was missing PE at school and playtimes. Spoke to a nurse practitioner at GP practice who said she didn’t believe it to be a verruca and more an infection in his foot. We were prescribed cream. A couple of days later at bath time his Dad noticed something reflecting at the cut - a small chunk of glass! The verruca plasters I had been usimg must have drawn it out. I don’t feel he should have suffered months for this and maybe if I wasn’t dismissed by staff who to be fair, weren’t very polite and spoke down to me like I was over reacting, it could have been resolved a lot sooner!
