Only problem is the waiting.
November 30, 2023
They are a little better as they have more doctors and nurses. There are a lot on stand by. The only problem I have got is the waiting.
My mother was seen quickly in A&E

I took my mother to A&E and she was seen quite quickly. Very good service received.
Referred to A&E but too busy
November 28, 2023
To get referred to A&E by NHS 111 is ridiculous. The hospital is so busy there is no priority for children. There are long waits. It's so busy and you are left waiting.
So busy people are waiting outside.

I stubbed my toe really bad. There were people waiting outside because the waiting room was so busy. My younger brother also waited 12 hours in paediatrics section. Waiting times and priority for children are none existent.
Given antibiotics that worked this time.

A 4-6 hour wait but it wasn't too bad as they put me straight through to ENT and gave me a specific antibiotic which helped me more than the 3 weeks I was taking broad spectrum antibiotics that the GP prescribed. Plus I didn't have to pay for the prescription which was great.
Seen in time time at all.

Very understanding the special need of my son

Very good. They understand the special needs of my son and are very helpful. I have never had any issues with appointments or medication.
No update/communication on Urgent Referral
unknown
November 25, 2023
After an Ultrasound found something on my pancreas I was given an urgent two week referral to Heartlands. This was on the 13th October. I am now in my SIXTH week of waiting, and after being patient and just three phone calls enquiring what is happening, I've been told they will get in touch with me. On the 24th I was told this again and asked for a more direct contact number to speak to someone more senior. I was given the Secretaries number who said that she would contact consultants and phone me back. No call back received. This is shoddy care with no thought to my anxiety and mental health after six weeks of no further tests and even more lack of communication in their part.
