Review titled Efficient and thorough
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 July 2023
Having experienced a knee injury, initially I called 111 where I was able to explain my condition. Questions were thorough and as I wasn’t experiencing severe pain, I was referred on to a specialist department, being informed I would be contacted within 4 hours. Around 2 hours later I was contacted by my local hospital. Having ascertained my condition I was recommended to attend the a and e department in the morning, where I would be referred to an emergency practitioner nurse. I was pleased that a and e had my record in the morning, and once questioned by triage, I was immediately sent to the walk-in centre where I was attended to within 15 minutes. My injury was assessed, diagnosed and I was offered an X-ray for my own peace of mind. The wait for an X-ray was 20-30 minutes; on returning to the walk-in centre I was seen within 10 minutes to receive the results of the X-ray. As there wasn’t a problem, I was able to leave the hospital with self-care guidance and reference numbers if needed in future. I was impressed with the whole beginning to end experience which saved me time, and freed up the a and e department which I otherwise might have attended being concerned about my injury. My huge thanks to all concerned.

Review titled Great service.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Trevor Seddon - Posted on 19 June 2023
Recently I had a phone call cardiology appointment which is a very good way to carry out patient screening, for both staff and patients, saving valuable time. As a result of the consultation I received an appointment for a test to be carried out at TGH which arrived soon after the initial consultation. This was first class service as is always the case at TGH. Well done the cardiology department and well done TGH.

Had a phone call cardiology appointment. This is a very good way to carry patient screen when it can be applied; saves time. From this phone call a further appointment has been booked and one that I will have to visit TGH; received the appointment within days of the phone call appointment. The service was brilliant as is always the case at TGH. Well done the cardiology department and well done TGH.

Review titled Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
by Danish girl - Posted on 17 April 2023
I saw my GP 3weeks ago with Symptoms of severe Breathlessness and after preliminary examination & ECG . She noted problems with The ECG results, and concern over a Heart Murmur. She referred me to Cardiology Tameside Hospital as a Rapid Access patient. I was seen Quickly within Two Weeks..& a Echocardiogram ordered.. I had this done recently at the beginning of April. The Technician discovered HCM & said The Cardiologist would explain this Diagnosis with me. My concern is not sure when this will be and in the meantime I am desperate to start treatment for my distressing symptoms..

Review titled Fantastic Care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Neville Humphries - Posted on 27 April 2023
After being admitted to A & E after suffering a heart attack I was treated quickly and efficiently with great respect. I was to moved to the Accute Cardiology Unit where the care from all of the staff from the consultant to the cleaners was exceptional. I was informed clearly of everything, the staff were caring and compassionate at all times. Can't thank them enough. I was then moved to Ward 30 in the Charlesworth Building for one night. Once again all the staff were amazing. Thank you everyone.

Review titled 23 hours waiting in A&E
Rated 1 star out of 5
by heather webb - Posted on 08 March 2023
It is a terrible hospital total lack of patients care. Husband left without water or food for 14 hours and a blocked drip for 5 hours. Anti biotics needed urgently, 15 hours later got them. Nurses do not care and do not check their patients in A & E and A & E reception staff the worst in the country
