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.

Worse than my GP. They make you sit for hours in A&E without any support or medication.

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.

I was under the ENT at Heartland's. I had an endoscopy and they found ulcers so they performed a colonoscopy and found polyps. I had a camera down my nose and did a thorough health check.

They didn't know what to do

December 11, 2023
I went to Heartland's and they didn't know what to do. I was in A&E for 19 hours. I was sent back within 6 hours and then referred to the QE for further treatment.

I had two scans on my leg. They were as good as gold. They told me straight away there was no thrombosis. I did have to call back to get the results after my second scan.

Not happy with them at all.

I am not happy with them at all. Poor communication with patients. It's impossible to get them on the phone for any emergency advice.
