  1. Review titled Efficient practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 20 April 2023

    All staff in this department were extremely efficient and I was attended to really quickly. Bloods and urine were checked and then an xray. The doctor explained everything to me as he went through each procedure and put me at my ease. Couldn't recommend him highly enough. Excellent service from NHS and staff at Westmoreland Urgent Treatment Department.

    I attended WGH today with blood pressure problems and during my time there the staff were so kind, caring and helpful. Thank you to all concerned, you're a great team and an asset to the area. I'm very grateful for all your help.

  5. Review titled Good service and friendly staff

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 08 March 2023

    Attended for my little boy after ringing 111. We were seen quickly and all the staff were friendly. The doctor took time to explain the outcome and what to do if things change. The pathway seemed to work seemlessly from reception, triage, obs taken and seeing the doctor. A great service to have in Kendal.

  6. Review titled friendly and relaxing

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I was so well treated by so many friendly staff I was made to feel like a v i p and throughout the day there was always someone there to reassure me. As an nervous older patient I could not have asked for better treatment from everyone. I cannot speak highly enough of my experience. Well done everyone

  8. Review titled Colonscopy Department and Staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Stephen Ellwood - Posted on 15 December 2022

    After arriving anxious of what was to come, the receptionist, nursing staff and colonoscopy team couldn’t have been warmer and have made me feel any more comfortable that I was in good hands. Amazing people doing an amazing job

  9. Review titled Contact is *so* difficult

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Gordon - Posted on 02 December 2022

    I have a departmental letter from you. It does not give a phone number or e-mail address. Your website does not give departmental phone numbers - nor an e-mail address. I phoned the one 'general' number I have for you - and got through to the right department but in the wrong hospital (Lancaster). I really think you ought to consider your *clients* interest in providing simple ways to contact departments by phone and by e-mail.

  10. Review titled Waiting time

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 18 July 2024

    My mum came for an appointment regarding hip replacement, December 2022 she was offered an injection to help during the waiting time. This took place. When she next saw the consultant in May she had deteriorated, and told she had been missed from the list, 6 months of waiting not even on a list appalling! Now July 2024 and still not had operation even though requires mobility scooter to get about. No apology for missed from list and very unhelpful staff when we phone to ask how long she will wait. Living in pain all the time has taken its toll on mums mental health and yet no one appears to care. A very unhappy family with care and support given.
