City Hospital

too much of self promotion and information useless for patients. Could not find appointments functions. Nightmare for users.

I need to get a blood test done at a weekend, as I have a full time job in London and live at my normal home in Birmingham at weekends. Not a single location throughout the Sandwell and Birmingham NHS Trust appears to be open after office hours. I believe the government is trying to get the NHS to serve working taxpayers at weekends and about time too.

I was booked in last week for an EMG/NCS at the Clinical Neurophysiology Dept.

The entire staff work tirelessly, d16 the ward is spotless.

No explanations and sticking rigorously to blood tests rather than listening to the patient. I am a person not a set of numbers.

I'm looking to apply for medicine and need some volunteering experience in a hospital. I've been calling the hospital every day to speak to a volunteer manager, but all I get is an automated response saying there isn't anyone available.

my grand daughter was born at City's maternity unit. She had an infection and ended up on antibiotics and having a lumbar puncture. The explanation that she had an infection was given. Not where it came from. Now I hear of others whose babies have similar, infections, lumbar punctures to rule out meningitis but no meningitis. Just no further explanation. I'm wondering if the maternity is clean or contaminated?

Overall, it was a good experience. I was treated with good care and I was given good advice.

No further investigate on my sickness and sent my back to my own GP and my GP is doing nothing for over a year. I feel this is bad service.

Waiting for treatment keep cancelling the noise and disrespect of patient who are abusive and have no respect for others. Shameful nurses have no control of the ward.
