Unsupportive and lack of communication

September 6, 2022
No hope. They're not supportive at all. I live over that area and had to travel all the way to the Royal Orthopedic Hospital. They never got back to me the communication was extremely poor. There was no communication to tell you the truth.

After ringing 111 at 5am I was told that Good Hope was expecting me. I checked in and after about one hour I discovered that there would be a nine hour wait. This was not mentioned when I checked in.

I had to be taken in by an ambulance and they noted down that it was a planned admission. Some of the staff are rude and they treated me very bad.

Great staff

August 5, 2022
I ended up going here for an ultrasound scan on a small lump I had after being referred from my doctor. The lady doing the scan said she felt that the ultrasound scan was not the right thing for that problem and advised I needed further exploration. I went back to my GP who said there was no lump there, but it kept growing. I went back to my GP once again and they made a referral to the hospital and it turned out I had an abdominal hernia and a tear in my abdominal muscle. Ended up having surgery here to remove it and the staff were great.

It is good to hear you pursued your need for further investigation and it has resulted in a better outcome, particularly getting the referral back to us for surgery. Your kind words have been forwarded to the senior staff responsible for the department so they can share with their team members. Feedback like this is greatly valued as staff love to hear they have made such a positive difference.
