Given a pre-op before a consultation

December 18, 2023
It's been fine when I have been here. They could improve the phones as I have had issues getting hold of the right person. I have had lots of wrong information come through to me. The numbers do not correspond to the secretary. They sent the pre-op appointment for now but it took two weeks to get through and pre-op was sent before I had even seen my consultant. I was given this twice but I need to see the consultant before I have a pre-op. They gave me an appointment for February when I should have been seen earlier. So they have ended up giving me a cancellation appointment today.

An urgent referral within a week.

I had an urgent referral which took a week. They sent the letter regarding the appointment through the post, the GP and through a text where you have to put in accurate date of birth to access the letter.

The hospital has been lovely. The staff are lovely and helpful. I've been coming here for a few years. I had a hysterectomy here. I thought I would have had keyhole but they don't do it here.

A 3 year wait for treatment

December 12, 2023
Myself and wife want to access fertility services. We are not getting enough help. we wanted to go to a place in Solihull but they won't provide funding on NHS. Our referral for treatment could take 3 years on the waiting list and we are already in our 40's and want children.
