Review titled Doctor was great
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Daniel - Posted on 26 June 2024
Was seen in A+E for a minor eye injury. Felt stupid and embarrassed, scared, had to go on my own. Obviously wasn't a fun experience in general, but just wanted to say that for a service that I know is being pushed to it's capcity right now... everyone was so professional, kind and made me feel looked after while I was feeling vulnerable and worried about my health. In particular, I just want to say thank you to the doctor who saw me, who really was so relaxed, reassuring, informative, and nice. I am sure it is such a difficult job and I was just so impressed with how at ease he was, after midnight on a Sunday, how in the five minutes or so he spent with me he explained a lot and helped a lot with my injury. Very grateful for the care I received from this service and for all the staff who commit themselves to this job! Thank you so much.

I arrived 1am on sun. The place was very busy. The staff were very competent and got the numbers down quickly. Wait times were long but no-one could have dealt with it more efficiently. Thanks.

by Gordon & Lorraine - Posted on 07 June 2024
We attended A&E today following a fall & being advised to do so by our GP. We were triaged , bloods taken , ECG readings taken , X-rays taken , consultation with results of tests & prescription given along with post op instructions all within 3 hours of arrival by a professional, approachable & caring team of nurses / phlebotomists / radiographers / pharmacists & consultant. We would like to thank everyone involved in our care today , & comment how fortunate we are to be able to access this team . Incidentally whilst we were waiting we were asked if we’d like a tea, coffee, biscuit or sandwich … outstanding & totally unexpected ! Thank you all

Review titled Amazing staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Clare - Posted on 28 June 2024
I was advised to go to the QE by the clinician of my medical practice. I knew this would incur a long, long wait and it did, but every member of staff was efficient, friendly and professional. For my condition, despite the huge number of people there, they left no stone unturned in treating me - I felt I mattered. The staff are under enormous pressure but still maintain a thoroughly friendly and supportive professionalism. Thank you

Review titled Good practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by RozS - Posted on 23 June 2024
My elderly father arrived via ambulance from his care home where he had had a fall. All of the NHS staff we encountered on this day, including paramedics, doctors, nurses, occupational therapy, hospital porters were friendly, caring and professional. My dad had a thorough check up before being discharged. One nurse in particular stood out during this time and we thank him in particular.

Review titled Excellent Care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ann McCulloch - Posted on 24 May 2024
I am under the care of the vasculitis team at the QE and cannot fault the care I receive. The staff show me care and compassion going out of their way to keep me well informed and to explain everything thoroughly to me. The team are welcoming, understanding, friendly, kind, helpful and approachable. My consultant in particular is incredibly knowlegable about my condition and always takes the time to answer any questions providing full and clear answers. I have full confidence in him and the rest of the team. They go above and beyond their duties in order to provide the best possible care showing dedication at all times to their profession and their patients. Heartfelt thanks go to them all.
