  1. Review titled Delayed Appointment

    by Esso69 - Posted on 31 August 2023

    Got here 30mins before appointment time and was sent straight to get my x-ray. X-ray complete and back at clinic bang on time for my appointment. Still sitting waiting to see doctor 90 mins past my appointment time. When I queried the delay I was dismissed and made to feel impatient and told I would be slotted in when they could, right at the very end as it happens. Why give me an appointment time? This has now cost me 3 hours off work that I will have to make up tonight. Not impressed at all.

  2. Review titled Informative, reassuring and efficient

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 19 September 2023

    I suffered a serious injury after a sports accident. A&E attended to me efficiently and with care. I had an appointment with an Orthopaedic surgeon a week later, who urgently referred me for an MRI, which also happened promptly a week later. My follow up was again, very prompt. I was kept informed throughout of any future potential complications and the reasons for treatment pathways. I cannot praise the staff enough. I was reassured and cared for by all who I saw. Excellent patient service. Thank you.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Sara Allan - Posted on 26 August 2023

    I visited A & E with my sister. From booking in, to waiting in the waiting area, to various tests and consultation with the doctor, and then booking further out patient appointments, the service was excellent. Thank you to all the staff for their care, professionalism and friendliness.

  5. Review titled Impossible appointments

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Gary - Posted on 13 July 2023

    I have attempted to contact appointments for an occupational therapy referral date via the switch board and two supplied telephone numbers, during the course of a week. The phone numbers just ring out or are eventually cut off. This is no way to treat your patients that you have a duty of care to. I appreciate the difficulties that the nhs are currently experiencing but this level of care is unacceptable.

  6. Review titled Two hour delay

    by horologiumxz53 - Posted on 20 July 2023

    Two hour delay for an appointment scheduled for 9:40 when the clinic opens at 8:30. Unsure how it can be so bad. That is on top of having to drive around looking for a parking space for 40 minutes before having to give up and park in a pub off site. The whole place is not fit for purpose.

  7. Review titled All staff polite and helpful, made me feel at ease

    by indiabm68 - Posted on 24 August 2023

    - wasn't as bad as I was expecting - everything ran on time. - autism friendly - very clean - liked the size of the space - everything was explained very clearly. - learnt a lot about the process and why they were doing it. - very friendly. - respectful - had a sense of humour. - made an effort to not eat infront of me. - The room could've had pictures/decorations to distract me. - All staff polite and helpful, made me feel at ease

    by castorch39 - Posted on 05 July 2023

    My experience for the whole day at stepping hill hospital was a totally positive one. The care and service was exceptional. Very friendly professional advice was given to me. I felt extremely relaxed and put at ease as soon as I arrived for my appointment. I learned a lot of new things about my condition which was very useful and positive for me. Thank you very much :)

  10. Review titled Outstanding

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Heather Hanley - Posted on 30 June 2023

    From the moment I walked into a and e, my treatment was fantastic, from everyone. I was on d8, then the high dependency unit, then d6. The care I received was amazing, the nurses worked so hard and took time to ensure I was ok and explained what was happening. Care on the hd unit was exceptional, Dr's found time to speak to my family, who were so worried, and I would like to thank everyone involved in my care. Food was pretty good and always hot. Thank you Stepping Hill.
