rude abrasive nurses who couldn't care less. left alone and not eating for 3 days, nurses couldn't be bothered. I feel that at 83 he is being left to die on ward 16

I used the hospital. It was hard to speak. Today has helped to be able to tell the nurse what is wrong. Nurse was very nice.

I had surgery at Good Hope hospital, they were really good no problem at all. Easy to get to. I’ve had better luck in getting hospital appointments than GP.
Good doctors

I was in there for 10 hours. I waited a good many hours to see the doctor. They were really good when I saw them. They did X-rays and blood tests. It turned out I had a fracture in my back. Hospital was brilliant. They sent my results to the GP the next day but I had to wait weeks to discuss them with my doctor.

11 Hour Waiting
Accident and emergency services

I arrived at a&e at 5pm and was initially told that waiting time was 4-5 hours. This timeframe grew and grew. I managed to get seen by a doctor at 3.50am the following morning. I was then told I would need to wait a further 3 hours for blood test results. I have had sciatica for 4 weeks and the plastic seats were unbearable so decided to discharge myself. My partner who had driven me had had no sleep and had work an hour later. We had been there 11 hours and it would have stretched to 14 if we had waited for the results. We watched many patients discharge themselves who were desperate to be seen. We witnessed a patient collapse forward from their wheelchair in the waiting room and patients arrived after driving themselves as no ambulances were available. If we had been told at the beginning that the wait would be that long we definitely wouldn’t have stayed but I would have gone by myself the following morning. We were told there was a lack of doctors.

I had my son here, they were really really good. I felt really at ease, well as much as I could be!
Really felt listened to and they were so helpful especially with the feeding.
