Birmingham Womens Hospital

A new portal allowing me to see letters etc is a good idea. What is a terrible idea is a million contradictory messages on different platforms alternately cancelling and rebooking my appointments. I have literally no idea what’s going on.

I’ve been waiting 8 months for a follow up appointment to check in for my readiness for surgery which I’ve been told is a year wait. Got an appointment through today for December and when I called to try and change it, I was told the consultant I’ve been seeing is retiring so I’ll now have to start again with someone else.

Everything from pre-op to the actual day. All very kind and caring. Explaining everything carefully so I understood.

I’ve had an awful experience getting help for menopause and still am. I have been laughed at, told I cannot have HRT because of my adenomyosis (untrue), finally put in touch with a consultant at the Menopause Clinic at the hospital (who I have never met face to face)who prescribed HRT but said I would need to be closely monitored. I’ve been bleeding for months again (6 and counting) and nobody seems able to either help me contact the consultant (he’s vanished into thin air it seems) or advise me about what to do. I’ve been told to stop taking HRT altogether or take a higher dose every day by various GPs and I’m at my wits end.

Mostly positive when I was there for an emergency C-Section.

It was great. I was very happy with them.

Good. They were good when I had my baby 11 months ago. Nice staff and they were fine.

Maternity ward is good however the waiting at antenatal is very long. I have been here since 9:30am and its now 1:12pm. The staff are good and very helpful.

I find it difficult to navigate and the waiting time is long as the last time I came I waited over 1 and half hours to realise I wasn't in the right place.

Overall good and better than my local Worcester hospital. This specialises in maternity more than Worcester. The staff are really nice.
