  2. Review titled Great team

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 08 March 2024

    I brought myself into A&E on Thursday afternoon due to abdominal pain and I couldn’t get in at my gp, unfortunately the receptionist didn’t check me in correctly so I was waiting four hours before I was seen but once checked in the doctor was amazing as getting me seen and explained everything to me really listened to me as I had a lot of symptoms and had been in this pain for a few weeks. After bloods, urine sample they knew what was wrong and I was away with antibiotics. I want to thank the nurse for being so gentle and polite and the doctor for really listening and getting to the bottom of the issue. Credit to our NHS

  3. Review titled No sleep or rest.

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 March 2024

    Currently in ward 23 undergoing observations. Blood pressure, temperature taken every 4 hours making a good nights sleep night on impossible. It's noisy in the corridor outside the ward at night as well with staff talking quite loudly with seemingly little or no consideration for people trying to sleep. During the day there consistent noise from staff talking pretty much all the time in the bay. It got so bad today my wife who was visiting had to ask them to keep it down. I honestly cannot wait to get home to a good night sleep as I believe the lack of quality rest is seriously hindering my recovery and getting quality rest at home will be highly beneficial to myself.

  4. Review titled Good Care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by H C GORING - Posted on 13 February 2024

    I brought my Mum to A & E on Sunday, with her care ultimately being completed by the sdec team. Everything went very smoothly and she received great and thorough care. From the triage nurse, to the porters and the consultants, we were treated exceptionally well

  5. Review titled A and e..

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 February 2024

    Staff fantastic but seating needs rearranging..being face to face with poorly people is not ideal especially people vomiting . Chairs should all face one way. Vending machine doesn't offer a water option or a full fat drink..lots of people allergic to sweetners in fizzy drinks. Two televisions but not switched on. Just some soothing music would be appreciated. But must say all nurses and doctors were so kind and friendly

  6. Review titled A&E

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 27 February 2024

    Attended A&E recently for palpitations and although wait time was not the best (completely understandable its very busy) I actually felt listened to by a Doctor for the first time in my life. Instead of being brushed off for "anxiety" they suggested I could have a condition called PoTS. Thank you for making me feel heard.

  7. Review titled Planned C-Section 02.2024

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    The staff here are flat out amazing. I had a planned c-section and without fail every member of staff who dealt with my case was outstanding. They should really pride themselves on their patient relations.

  8. Review titled Excellent treatment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by June - Posted on 30 January 2024

    I attended A and E with a badly cut leg which had been bleeding profusely. Every member of staff I interacted with were sensitive, professional and kind. Thank you A and E, particularly the lovely Nurse who put me back together again…

  9. Review titled Temperature

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    Been to visit my daughter in icu after she was transferred from Ecmo in Leicester and the room is absolutely freezing We sat in jumpers scarves and coats and my daughter had to have a throw from home as she has been freezing since being admitted. Not allowed to have a hot or cold drink if a visitor unlike Ecmo unit who kept us well supplied with drinks of every description and nothing was too much trouble You don’t come into hospital to freeze to death when you are a patient! Get that heating on!!!

  10. Review titled Fantastic throughout

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by natalie holmes - Posted on 27 January 2024

    I had a bad experience with Hull Royal on Wednesday and was then sent from pillar to post by other medicals. On the off chance I travelled to Scunthorpe yesterday and I cannot fault my experience one bit. I was cared for, treated well and every single one of the staff members were polite and helpful. I spent the day in the Same Day Emergency Care Ward. The way the hospital works and triages just completely makes sense and is really positive. I was seen quickly and despite being there until gone 8pm from 11am, at least my wait was constantly for the next thing, and not just waiting for the sake of it. I would highly recommend and would love to thank all for their help.
