Review titled great service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Diane Blake - Posted on 26 January 2025
My 111 call at 12.00 received an instant response and an immediate referral to Solihull Urgency Clinic with an appointment at 3.00. A Consultant saw me at 3.10 and diagnosed my breathing problem as whirring virus and prescribed an inhaler which I collected from my local Balsall Common Pharmacy at 3.45 Brilliant service

Review titled Unsatisfactory arrangements for car parking
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by John Fontaine - Posted on 16 December 2024
On Monday 16 December I took a relative for an appointment at the Urology department. I arrived at about 11.00am and entered the main car park. The barriers were up and no tickets were being issued. After the appointment, on enquiring at the security office I was told that I would have to queue at the one available office, to pay and receive a ticket to exit. There were at least 50 people in the queue, stretching across the car park and exit road. I had to queue for 20 minutes, in bad weather, to receive a ticket. This is unacceptable. I have never been to Solihull Hospital before, but I hope that the system is being addressed urgently. I have visited other hospitals where a “pay on exit” system operates effectively, entering the car registration which was scanned by camera on entry, paying the required fee, and receiving a ticket to exit. Please add this to what must be a large number of complaints, in the hope that the parking ticket issue can be remedied as soon as possible. There were many patients and visitors in the queue, having a very unpleasant experience.

Review titled Brilliant staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Louise - Posted on 18 December 2024
I visited the Women's Health department at Solihull hospital today (18/12) for a hysteroscopy. Having worked as a HCA in another hospital in the same department I was fully aware of the procedure and how some women find it difficult to go through. I built myself up to expect a lot of pain and discomfort but I really shouldn't have worried. The doctor and HCA were really chatty and made me feel as comfortable as possible. There was a little discomfort, as expected but it was not what I had built it up to be. I just wanted to say thank you to the team and hope you all have a lovely Christmas! Louise.

Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 24 December 2024
I took my son to the UTC at Solihull hospital. We were seen quickly. The waiting area was spotless and comfortable. The reception team were pleasant enough, not very friendly but they literally just did there job without any pleasantries, which was fine because the rest of the experience was fantastic. The HCA 'D' was lovely. She noticed my sons lanyard showing he was autistic and spoke to him a way that was befitting for him. She made him feel very comfortable. The ANP 'A' was so nice. She explained everything, sent us for an x ray and we seen again really quickly She explained the x ray to my son and the plan of treatment and care for his broken finger. The whole experience was really smooth and didnt take long at all. The environment was spotless and clean. What a refreshing change. Thank you so much

Review titled Excellent
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by M Sprason - Posted on 29 October 2024
Took my elderly father in for surgery this morning - the Elective Surgery Team could not have been more helpful or accommodating. Everyone was friendly, everything was organised and calm and it was nice to meet the surgical staff. Once all the necessary checks and paperwork were done, felt very comfortable leaving him in their care.

Review titled A friendly place
Rated 5 stars out of 5

My 89 year old mum had an appointment with the respiratory team. She was worried about the outcome of chest xrays and CT scan fearing the worst. The consultant and lung CNS immediately put her at ease, took time to explain her results, gave options and listened to what she had to say. We came away from the appointment with mum feeling reassured and clear about what her choices are. Thank you so much.
