Got the help I needed

April 12, 2023
I had stomach issues for 6 months. I ended up calling NHS 111 and they told me to go to the A&E at the hospital. It turns out I had food poisoning. The waiting times were long as I got there at 12pm and I didn't get home till 7pm. But I did get the help I needed.

Poor communication

I went to A&E and there was poor communication and no interpretation service provided. It was a miscarriage (DNC) and doctor wanted to flush everything out but due to unavailability of BSL interpreter I went back.

Miserable staff

March 30, 2023
Hit and miss. The staff were miserable and horrible when speaking to you. I did not like it here at all. I'm glad I rarely have to go. It's off putting when you're treated like that.

Good staff and treatment

March 29, 2023
It's a good hospital. I usually go here for my appointments and find it easier to get to and go around. It's also more local to me. The staff are good here and I feel like I get really good treatment. Can't complain really.

Lovely hospital and staff mostly nice

March 29, 2023
It's a lovely hospital. One nurse was rude. They wouldn't send an ambulance/patient transport to take me home on discharge after my stent was fitted. The nurse who was caring for me previously had said she would arrange a taxi but had gone off shift. The nurse who was on the next shift and who was in charge, had a go at me and was quite rude. Everyone else was good though.

Sent by ambulance to with a pulmonary embolism. Stayed for 10 days, gave me blood thinners for the clots. Hospital was clean and staff was great.

Kept well informed, can't complain

March 17, 2023
Been here about 5 or 6 weeks, great I can't complain. Found food good, the facilities are great I mean it's not a 5 star hotel. Staff kept me well informed and if I have any queries, they will find an answer.

Good hospital

March 15, 2023
Used the hospital all my life. I was determined not to come in this time. They are a good hospital. I've stayed for over a week. But they're good.
