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.

Treated me bad

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.

We are delighted to hear about the positive patient experience you had when you attended for your scan and the sound advice given as regards further exploration. 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.

Really good experience

I had a really good experience here with them. I was referred to a private service for them to treat my ongoing eye problems as a NHS patient.

Lack of communication

July 7, 2022
I went into hospital before Christmas with Pneumonia and was sent home just in time for Christmas, but in February an ambulance turned up at my house and took me back to hospital. They didn't tell me why they were taking me to the hospital.
