Review titled Outstanding Health/Medical Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Spike Menegaldo - Posted on 14 July 2023
Words cannot describe the incredible, marvellous service all the Health care Practioners provide in the Colorectal Surgery Department. In fact, the entire NHS service, from my GP surgery through to the Cpet Clinic, Ct Department, etc, etc has been simply excellent. I had the misfortune to be afflicted with a mildly serious illness, but I have the Good Fortune to be a recipient of the outstanding Medical Care of the staff in all the respective units outlined above.

From the first appointment to the day I left hospital. The service from all staff was and still is great , friendly so helpful and patient. Total respect to all staff . Shame I couldn’t thank them all face to face but it ran so smooth I was in and out . So thank you all again. PS I met some nice friendly patients which gave the wards an extra good feel thanks to them too .

Review titled Fantastic experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lucy Chambers - Posted on 21 June 2023
I have recently had a diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis and from start to finish my experience within the Rheumatology department ha been exemplary. From the staff on reception, to the nurse who took my blood pressure, to the consultant and physio, they were all incredibly patient, professional, welcoming and generally exceeded all expectations. I was seen within 15 minutes of arriving, not rushed when in my appointment and felt thoroughly heard by the consultant I saw. I had my meds changed and was offered an X-ray immediately. I went to the main hospital where the radiographer practically greeted me at the door and I had my scans. Within half an hour of being home I was contacted with results and had a really supportive discussion with the consultant. I then received two more appointments in the post within 24 hours. One of which was for today, only 6 days after my initial one. I saw a wonderful physiotherapist who again, did not rush me, was professional, understanding and made me feel better about the journey ahead. I have been signposted to great sources of support, seen many amazing professionals and already feel so much better than I did last week, and the new meds have not even kicked in yet. I really cannot thank everyone enough, you are all doing such a fabulous job and I have seen this in every single person I have encountered in the rheumatology department. Thank you all so much

Review titled All staff encountered were amazing!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Siobhan - Posted on 20 June 2023
I had two procedures recently, an ercp in early May and gallbladder removal last week. I can’t praise and thank all the staff I came across enough. Emergency staff, doctors, scan staff, porters, nurses, caterers, cleaners and surgeons all were caring, polite and considerate. Equipment wasn’t always working that well (that’s a government issue!) but they all delivered outstanding practise in my opinion. I was kept well informed of procedures and I felt listened to with worries and fears. My heartfelt thanks to a truly incredible team!

Review titled Staff Just Incredible.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 14 May 2023
I just wanted to say how appreciative I am of staff in ward f7. The nurses, doctors, Healthcare Assistants, porters and anaesthetists all went above board to make sure I felt safe and comfortable after needing emergency abdominal surgery. I felt completely looked after by every person here and wanted to give my upmost thankfulness to everyone that helped me. nhs healthcare workers truly went above and beyond to make my stay here feel as stress free as possible, and always had someone to voice my concerns to if I felt alone. I can’t express how thankful I am for my care. Thank you nhs heroes. You truly are incredible.

Review titled Hospital anxiety.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by S. Lloyd - Posted on 16 March 2023
Any hospital visit has the potential to be stressful as for many it is an unnerving environment. Everyone I met was kind and helpful and the tests and procedures were carried out with efficiency and reassurance. The test results were clearly explained and I now have to summon up the courage to self administer daily injections ! The first will be the hardest despite clear instructions and a demonstration/ first dose. Many thanks to the kind and caring staff who go beyond ' just doing their job'. Hopefully they will be deservedly well rewarded for their wonderful work following the latest pay negotiations.

Review titled Rude receptionist at minor injuries unit.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 March 2023
While attending the minor injuries unit I was struggling how to exit the department. I pressed the green button and the receptionist was extremely rude shouting I need to stand back then very sarcastically said well they’re a huge sign that says it there. I appreciate ma y people might be able to see that however I did and if I did I have extremely bad dyslexia and therefore this comment made me feel inferior and like I was not welcome in the area due to a learning difficulty. Many other such as eal people with vision problems would have also took offence to this women’s rudeness. Please ensure staff have inclusivity training to ensure they do not make anyone feel inferior.
