Be prepared to wait hours

December 11, 2023
Very bad experience all the time here. Be prepared for long waits. Always take drinks and food with you because it may take 3 to 6 hours before you will be seen.

Thorough and provided good care of my wife

December 11, 2023
My wife ended up here after a 999 call. She was on ward 21 for 2 days and they looked after her well. They were thorough and had someone from physiotherapy examine her. She had an x-ray and then a CT scan. They were very good and provided very good care.
