They kept an eye on my blood pressure.

October 25, 2023

I was taken there after a suspected stroke. They saw me quickly and did the relevant tests. They helped me and it turned out that it wasn't a stoke but monitored my blood pressure and it was very high and they said I would need to get an appointment with my GP within a few weeks of being discharged but I have struggled with my GP.

Easier to get to and they communicate well.

October 25, 2023

A&E is a bit better here, especially the waiting times and it is much easier to get to. The staff are really nice there too. You can wait some time but they let you know how long and they communicate with you.

Chaotic and poorly run.

A&E over there is chaotic and very poorly run and mismanaged. Nobody knows what they are doing.

Good Hope won't do a CT scan they want to do the invasive procedure instead. The car park was full and it was a long way to drive

They looked after her.

October 23, 2023

My 71 year old nan was taken to hospital when she was struggling with her breathing. An ambulance brought her in and they said they couldn't do anything for her as she was too poorly. They looked after her in her last hours, but it could have been a better outcome had Heartlands scanned her and did tests previously.

My wife was seen there and all was pretty good. No long wait for the appointment. It was a follow up and they wanted to do it there. Overall, it was a good experience.

They wanted to send me home straight away.

I had my leg operation here and the consultant was great but the nurses were rude and provided very poor care after the operation. They just wanted to send me home straight away after the operation.
