I attended needing treatment for a nasty dog bite , I was triaged quite quickly but then had a long wait before I could be examined by the doctor .However the care I received from all the staff ,especially the doctor who treated me was exemplary.

A big thank you to ICU for saving my life. I went in with acute Pancreatitis. I can’t write names but if it wasn’t for the 2 Doctors taking me down to ICU, I wouldn’t be here. Thanks also to all Doctors/Nurses/Consultants in ICU & all on ward KG5. Thank you

Review titled Fantastic.
Rated 5 stars out of 5

By far the quickest and most efficient appointment I've ever had, with some of the kindest nurses/doctor I've dealt with. After a few weeks of agony, I was seen and had my wisdom teeth removed within the week. All of the team were so kind, the receptionists made me feel at home, the nurse was very kind and made sure I had access to all the resources I needed (MyCare app) and was on hand within the day when I had a question. The doctor could tell I was nervous, he was really reassuring, answered all my questions well and thoroughly explained the process to me. I couldn't be more thankful to the team. Besides the small amount of discomfort I had eating for 2 days, Im completely pain free now!

Today two wonderful practitioners in audiology tested and fitted me with hearing aids. All done with patience and skill. I am so pleased with the result and feel they will be life changing. Thank you both and to the NHS for giving me this amazing technology and all free.

Review titled Incredible care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Christine - Posted on 02 September 2024
I've just had a 6 day stay. I was in a traumatic state very unwell and dehydrated when the amazing paramedics came to treat me with such care and get me to a&e. At a&e I was given brilliant care so much kindness many tests to find the problems. From here I was transferred to MAU where again I received amazing care and kindness. I was soon transferred to Robough ward.. to continued wonderful care. The consultants doctors nurses care team and Sodexo for providing gluten/dairy free choices. I cannot thank you all enough. I am now at home recovering and feel blessed for such a brilliant NHS

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Christine Mason - Posted on 13 August 2024
I have been in hospital for 13 days. The attention to care and kindness and getting me well again was amazing. From the paramedics to A&E on to MAU then Tarka ward... Every member of staff did everything to make me comfortable.The testing and observations were so supportive. The food and tea/ coffee excellent especially as I have intolerance to some foods. The staff are all so busy but still manage a smile and greeting! Thank you all so much
