We had to wait over a month for a blood test here. It had to be pre-booked. They did send the results quickly to the GP.

I went for an emergency. They are very good. Sometimes it's a long wait, sometimes it isn't.

The system is terrible

A 19 hour wait in A&E, and anytime you go it's like that. My brother had a car crash and my sister waited 22 hours. System is terrible and needs to be sorted.

In general the dining area is good. Parking is also good but the toilets are dirty and the departments are very poorly signposted.

It's very busy. I waited 3 hours in A&E then I left without seeing a doctor. No water to drink, toilets were dirty and the seating was uncomfortable.
