  1. Review titled Absolute Superb Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Spectre - Posted on 17 October 2023

    I have had cause to visit Opthamology on 2 occasions over the past 2 weeks. In both instances the service and especially all the staff involved were outstanding. Very polite and professional together with communicating every thing that was being carried out. All the Nurses go above and beyond, you all should be extremely proud of yourselves, thank you very much.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Sara - Posted on 10 October 2023

    I visited A and E this evening with my 11 year old daughter and a suspected broken finger. Staff were kind, knowledgeable and extremely professional. The nurse practitioner we saw couldn't have been more thorough and helpful. Thank you so much.

    I visited dermatology today for a mole removal , very nervous and already in pain with fibromyalgia. The lovely nurses and doctors were really friendly and informative of the procedure. Thank you so much for holding my hand and helping me get through it.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by G.Grant - Posted on 20 July 2023

    My son was admitted to A&E after impaling himself on his handlebars, the nurses and doctors were amazing and very reassuring. He had surgery and stayed on Disney ward where he again recieved outstanding care, he was treated with respect,dignity and regularly checked even though they were extremely bust. My sincere thanks to the A&E team, surgeons, Doctors, Nurses and health care assistants who were involved in his care.

  7. Review titled Excellent service and brilliant staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 11 July 2023

    Having being treated for a bladder tumour in 2019, I frequently return for a routine cystoscopy to check that no tumour has returned and that everything is normal. The staff in the urology department are brilliant. Recently a young lady carried out my latest procedure, this was the easiest and least uncomfortable procedure of this type I've ever had. Arrived on time and waited only a very short time before being called in. Procedure was done very efficiently, thoroughly and professionally. I cannot praise the staff here enough.

  9. Review titled Disappointing A&E Service

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 June 2023

    Unfortunately we had to visit Scunthorpe A&E this afternoon after my partner suffered a serious fall and needed an x-ray. There were only about half a dozen people waiting to be seen. On arrival we were told we would be seen "soon" but in the hour that we waited about half a dozen people turned up, many suffering sporting injuries which were broadly similar in nature to our injury, but nearly all were seen ahead of us. It seems age discrimination is being practised. At times there were as many people sitting behind the reception desk (doing nothing) as there were patients waiting to be seen. In the x-ray department there was no one waiting to be seen except us. There were three people behind the reception desk, two of them leisurely browsing phones. We still had another wait. It seems Scunthorpe A&E haven't got enough staff with the right skills and there are too many people sitting around who are not adding any value. With effective organisation and management, patients could be provided with a much improved service.

  10. Review titled Disney Ward Excellent Staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 17 June 2023

    Our 18 month daughter got referred to the Disney ward to be monitored as she had very high temp that wouldn’t come down. All staff were so friendly and helpful. We were there no longer than 4 hours as they got her temp down but we were offered drinks and food numerous times. The ward domestic got our daughter some beans and mash and a yogurt as it was past her tea time which was very kind and came back later to offer her an ice lollie. The nurses we saw were very friendly and so good with our daughter. They gave her a cuddly lion toy for being so good which she loved!
