I have been there a number of times to attend the lung clinic. The staff are rude and I don't like that hospital at all.

I go there for my lungs too. They do biopsies and look at my lungs for fibrosis. They are very good there and I am thankful for the service.

They shut me down

I asked for other therapies but they shut it down. They do not understand that some therapies work well for me but because it's not the usual pathway of treatment they shut it down. They do not offer homeopathic treatments.

Rude, Slow, Dirty, Disorganised

Accident and emergency services
April 26, 2024
A&E staff are rude and clearly do not want to be there. The hospital a&e department is dirty with unusable toilets, pill pots lying around on the floor. Nurses have no idea why you are despite telling them 3 or 4 times. An absolute disgrace of a hospital a&e, the whole city knows the reputation but still have to go due the poor decisions. Disgusting from management disgusting from NHS no idea how it can be justified to pay so much council tax when clearly nothing goes into this hospital to put competent management and staff in.

Still waiting to see a doctor 4 hours in and still zero treatment!!
