Communication is good.

This part (diabetes) I have no issues. A&E is awful as waiting times from ambulance to A&E is a 4/5 hour wait. Communication with the diabetes staff clinic is good.

Diabetes care is very good.

Been coming here since 1993. Staff are very good. Car park is very difficult because you can never find a parking space. I am here for diabetes. Communication is okay. The diabetes care is very good at Good Hope hospital. Also my son has been treated here with diabetes.

Reception needs to be reviewed.

September 28, 2023
The car park is very difficult to get around and it is expensive. I am here for the second time this week. At the diabetic clinic for blood tests. The staff are okay. Checking in at the facility is difficult and needs to be reviewed. It is making people miss their appointments. Reception activity needs to be reviewed so that I could be accessible and on time to prevent people missing appointments because of the queue at the reception.

Care is good. Still waiting for appointment.

September 28, 2023
I am still waiting 30 minutes after the time I was given for the appointment letter. I have had to go to the desk to see what is going on and I don't know. We have been several times before about other issues. The care is good.

They are so caring.

September 28, 2023
We've been very happy, we have been coming here for lots of things. (Treatment centre, inpatient and heart department). I have been in hospital 3 times this year, they are so caring. When you are getting older you need someone to be more caring when you can't hear as well or need help understanding things.

Always first class.

September 28, 2023
Always first class. We have been here the last 3 weeks. It's all been fine, they have been really good. The didn't have us down this morning for an appointment. Though, they are trying to find us on the list right now. There may have been a mix up with appointment times. We haven't been waiting long today so far.
