Review titled Good service but the heat!!!
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 13 April 2023
Good experience after being rushed in with breathing problems, all necessary tests carried out effectively but the heat was beyond anything I’ve experienced. Certainly made me feel really ill

Review titled Prompt response and treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barry Parkes - Posted on 01 May 2023
Following my discharge after my operation, I found that I couldn't urinate. After developing intense pain, I called 111 around 2-30 am. The response was prompt and in a few minutes I spoke to a clinition who arranged an ambulance which arrived in 10 minutes or so. I was taken to A&E and promptly fitted with a catheter. The treatment I received was prompt, efficient and great relief! I was kept in A&E overnight then sent home with a catheter fitted. I was provided with supplies and told to attend Erology dept. the following week. The treatment I received was prompt and efficient and I was so grateful to the A&E staff who looked after me so well.

Review titled I feel the care I've received has been outstanding
by leopardkt65 - Posted on 13 July 2023
I fractured my wrist in an RTC before Christmas. I have been seen multiple times by the orthopedic team and they have all been brilliant. The reception staff were pleasant and efficient, the nurses in the clinic were very friendly and professional, the consultants were friendly, answered all questions well and I never felt rushed when I spoke to them. The nurses in the plaster room were fabulous and remembered me a few months after my final time in there, which was nice. Overall, I feel the care I've received has been outstanding.

Review titled Excellent Treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barry Parkes - Posted on 01 May 2023
After being fitted with a catheter in A&E, I was asked to visit the TWOC (Try WithOut Catheter) clinic the following week. The specialist nurses there were kind and sympathetic. They provided me with tea, soup and a sandwich whilst I spent most of the day in the department. The treatment I received was exemplary.

Review titled Excellent Care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barry Parkes - Posted on 01 May 2023
On 20th April 2023 I had an operation on my right hand to alleviate the effects of Dupytrens Contracture. The operation went well and I was returned to the day-case ward. Unfortunately the anaethetic affected my bladder function and I was unable to urinate. I was kept in overnight with a catheter fitted then released the next day. I am in absolute admiration for the professionalism of the nursing staff who alleviated the extreme pain I was in by very promptly fitting a catheter. One nurse in particular turned out to be an experienced Eurology nurse and was an absolute "angel in disguise" efficiently "sorting me out". I will be forever grateful to her.

Review titled Excellent Ward Staff
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Paul Shepherd - Posted on 14 April 2023
While waiting a considerable time for an angiogram I was on ward a11. The lack of information was very noticeable and very disappointing. On a plus side the level of care from the nurses was in my opinion excellent. Obviously the standard from certain nurses was above and beyond. I won’t name them as they know who they are as I told them how impressed I was. On a down side the administration needs updating as I believe the management forget the patients are real people and not just numbers in a bed. Overall the experience was not too bad but certainly could have been considerably better.

Good morning, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I have asked the Ward team for a response which is as follows: “I am pleased that you received excellent care from the nursing staff on the ward and that you felt some of them went above and beyond. In view of waiting a long time you’re your angiogram – I cannot really comment of this unless I knew your details. Angiograms usually happen quite swiftly (within 72hrs) unless there is a reason for not. We do try to keep our patients updated at all times so it’s unfortunate that you felt you weren’t kept up to date on the ward. This will be cascaded to the team.” If you wish to discuss your Angiogram delay further, you can contact me on Patient.Experience@stockport.nhs.uk and we can support with this. Kind regards, Aoife Isherwood Patient Experience

Review titled Absolutely amazing midwives
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ella Scotland - Posted on 12 March 2023
I really can’t thank the midwives at the maternity unit at stepping hill enough. They looked after me so well whilst I was in labour. Right from when my waters went, to giving birth, they were there for me. Me and my partner honestly can’t thank you enough. Both of us have been telling everyone how good you all are. I was too out of it at the time to say Thankyou, but I just hope this message gets passed along to the staff to tell them how amazing they are, and to tell them how good they are at their jobs. They were most likely understaffed, but they all still powered through and gave me the best possible labour/birth I could ever ask for. Each and every single one of them deserves credit. I remember all your names - I wish I could name you on here! Amazing amazing amazing - keep on doing what you are doing because I could not have done it without your support and you believing in me.
