Long waits for blood tests

January 3, 2024
My appointment with the consultant is always on time but I have to wait for a long time for my blood tests.

It's been really good. The communication is good, they ring me and I can contact someone if I need to. Everything runs quite well. They give us an appointment in good time so we can make arrangements to come.

Blood tests can take a while, good today.

Very good, quick referral. Come for blood tests today and there's been no long waits today either. It can usually take a while, but it's been good today.

Everything been really good, planned well.

Appointment didn't take long today as it was a follow up appointment. It was all planned well as appointment had to happen in a certain time. The GP referred us onto the hospital originally. Everything with the operation and everything else has been really good.

They were very good with my son

I took my son there when he was ill. We waited for hours. They were very good with him and checked him over. They made sure he was okay.

Very accommodating and organised

January 3, 2024
It's all been good, the staff are polite, it's well organised and lots to do for children whilst waiting. We've not been waiting a long time for the appointment. If you phone the reception staff, they're really good at sorting you out. Inpatient care has been really good and because we live so far away, they're always very accommodating.

All's been fine, we've not been waiting too long for the initial appointment. Son was seen and referred very quickly. I've had no issues so far. ENT have been very good, they've been brilliant, can't complain.

Brilliant care and kept in the loop

January 2, 2024
We've had a follow up appointment today. The initial appointment took a long time and had to chase them to get an appointment for the operation. We were referred on from the GP in Rugby and waited over a year before chasing it up and having the operation, which was day surgery. They were really good. The care has been brilliant and keeping us in the loop.
