Review titled Excellent, cannot fault
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Carol Walker - Posted on 27 December 2023
I had my annual appointment for my Meniere's today and cannot fault the ENT department at Preston at all. The consultant saw me immediately I arrived, I was then sent for a hearing test and barely had time to sit down before I was called through, and ditto when I returned to see the consultant after my test. From reception staff through to the consultant everyone was polite, friendly and ultra efficient, and this is the second year on the trot that it has been so. I absolutely cannot fault the department at all, they were excellent from start to finish, so much so that I had to leave this review I was so impressed.

Review titled Note of appreciation
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lucica S - Posted on 18 December 2023
Now,on the festive time of the year, with New Year round the corner, I would like to take the opportunity to say a big thanks to the whole Dialysis team from Preston hospital. I have dialysed at Preston unit for almost two years. During this time I have been treated with respect and given every assistance and advice necessary. In addition the nursing staff create a happy environment which makes the treatment more acceptable. Words cannot express how grateful I'm to all team members who looks after me during this year and with their professionalism provides me the best care and treatment that I can receive. Thank you to everyone. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Review titled Nuclear department
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I have had 2 visits to the department in swift succession, and all the staff have been wonderful, before the scan and during the scan. They are all very knowledgeable and take time to explain the processes, which really helps when the process is new to the patient. Thank you.

Review titled Fabulous experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gill Mutton - Posted on 08 November 2023
Whilst visiting outpatients the staff were absolutely amazing. I couldn’t have wished for a better experience or a more pleasant environment. One nurse took the time to make me a cup of tea which was very kind and extremely welcome. Thank you Lostock Suite for your care.

Review titled Great staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lauren - Posted on 25 November 2023
My little one was in A&E Thursday evening and through the night and the staff are an absolute credit to the service. We all know how much the NHS is under pressure at the moment but you wouldn't have sensed it. The staff were so compassionate, thorough, collaborative and just an all round a joy to be around. The same goes for everybody on ward 8! Hopefully we won't have anymore visits but if the need arises, I have the first hand knowledge that I am in great hands. Well done all for running such a tight ship, especially in such trying times!

Review titled Good Service
Rated 4 stars out of 5

Visited xray this afternoon, my wife was a "walk in." She was worried about signing in but was received politely. Not too long to wait for her chest xray. Well before the 20 minutes listed on the board. Pleasant girls dealt with this worried 81 year-old with skill.

Review titled Left waiting for over an hour without any explanation
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Mark Wareing - Posted on 07 October 2023
I had an appointment today at 13.10 I arrived at 12.30pm for my appointment in good time. I quickly noticed lots of people going in before me which is fine so I decided after an hour wait from my appointment time booked to ask why I’ve not gone in and was told they couldn’t give me a time and were running late. I informed them they should have put the lateness on their whiteboard for people to see how late they were running. I couldn’t stay any longer and have had cancer so will no doubt have to wait ages to get in again I’m not happy

Review titled Great help in an acute situation
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Alison Hardy - Posted on 26 October 2023
I work at a dialysis unit in Leeds & needed to arrange urgent dialysis for a patient who had gone to Blackpool on holiday, the Sister on the dialysis unit was helpful & accommodating & accepted my patient for dialysis which avoided him having to travel back to Leeds for dialysis

Review titled Cancelled Appointment
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 October 2023
My 5 year old child has been waiting for 4+ months to be seen, now the appointment got cancelled over the phone. I was told they would get in touch to rearrange as soon as possible, but they couldn’t even tell me to expect days or weeks or months or a year. I was wondering if our referral could be forward to another NHS provider, again no advice or information was given. I’ve grown to accept that even a young child has to wait ages for a specialist review in the NHS. However, I thought I still could expect to be at least informed about my options - I might have been wrong
