Absolutely brilliant at maternity

Maternity
July 16, 2024
I went in to be induced. They broke my waters and then said they thought I had sepsis and did an emergency C-section. They kept me in for 2 weeks. They were absolutely brilliant. The care was amazing. The midwives phoned when I came home.

I was taken to the hospital by ambulance at 6pm in the evening after the fall I had. I was shifted to the ward after 6AM because they had no beds available for me.

Sent same appointment as the one I cancelled

July 10, 2024
I called to change my appointment because of having dementia. It took several attempts to get through and then they said they would change it for me. They sent a new appointment and it was for the exact same date and time. I was really disappointed as it took so long to get through and sort it, I don't want to do it again.

An A class service

July 10, 2024
There were lots of people waiting but I only waited for 2 hours and it was marvellous. Seems there is a shortage of doctors. The care was wonderful. They did x-rays and then they let me go home. They called me in for a follow up too. Absolute A class service.

Waited 4 hours

July 10, 2024
I joined a queue of 30 people and ended up waiting 4 hours or longer. I feel like they should give appointments. They should take your name and then ask you to come back. It's horrible waiting in a room full of people. It is stupid.
