Review titled Clear procedures
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Colin - Posted on 20 January 2024
Booking in was clear, polite and the waiting area not crowded. Staff explained clearly the stages of procedure and were very friendly. Questions were answered clearly and next steps outlined. When Booking in it would be reassuring to be informed that appointments were running on time or with delays.

I came for a colonoscopy today 9.01.2024, A daunting experience for anyone but as a disabled wheelchair user I found the staff to be extremely helpful, kind and caring. The efficiency of the service I could not fault. So thank you Colonoscopy team for being so kind and understanding, it’s reassuring to know that this service does work, so if called get it checked and don’t be frightened the staff are on your side!

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ben - Posted on 31 December 2023
Had to take my wife into A&E with suspected appendicitis. Only waited 15 mins in a packed a&e for her to be seen. And was promptly told to go upto a ward to get her checked out. Fortunately it wasn't appendicitis . We were in and out in under 3 hours. We cannot thank the staff enough.
