No problems with them at all
July 12, 2023
Everything is okay, no long waits as I've just got here. On previous visits, they've explained everything well and send appointments via text and in the post. I've not had any problems with them at all.
Everything has been satisfactory
July 12, 2023
Been a good experience, they've just told me the gender of my baby. It's my first baby and they've treated me very well and have explained everything properly. Everything has been satisfactory, there's been no delays and they've been checking me properly.
Failing to meet demand poor quality of Care
Gynaecology

I was referred to the menopause clinic by my GP who is limited in providing some HRT treatments instead women are being funneled into specialist consultant led service at the Birmingham Women's Hospital.
This service is failing on all levels with women experiencing huge waits, I have been waiting for 15 months. Even when you do get an appointment post pandemic this is a telephone consultation and last week they DNA'd their own appointment with me. No notification from them about the missed appointment which relates to systemic issues regarding communication systems with women from this service and management of their waiting list.
I noticed that I could have spent £170 and seen the same consultant 15 months ago at a private provider which speaks volumes about the two tier system that is being created. BWH needs to review their current service and consult with women across the West Midlands to seek resolution of issues and ways to reduce waiting times, improve communication and work with Commissioners to get the service properly funded.
I feel completely let down by this service and their failure to provide any service to me has had a significant impact on my quality of life. The poor communication and failure to even let me know the appointment couldn't go ahead adds another layer of stress and poor service.

The service has been good, nurses have been empathetic, helpful and understanding. The waiting period has been good. Happy to be in good hands with my baby and feeling more myself again.
Triage can be a nightmare
July 4, 2023
Today has been alright, I've not been waiting long. Triage is a nightmare. If it's not that serious when you go in, the wait to see a doctor can be long. I waited 4 hours the last time I was there.

No communication and long waits
July 3, 2023
They're good. It's my first appointment today and the scan was at 11am but had it after 12 and have been waiting since to see the consultant. There's been no communication, I've been feeling unwell because I am diabetic and I've been waiting so long.
