Easy to get around the hospital

Sent a letter and text message about appointment today. Easy to get around the hospital. Had an appointment on 18th April. Follow up appointment is today only after couple of months. NHS is getting better.

No compassion

June 23, 2023
Respiratory clinic - Pulmonary Fibrosis diagnosed recently with junior doctor. No compassion, information or support given about life long condition. There should be more empathy when telling people about their results, not keep going in and out of the room to speak to the senior doctor.

They should use clear signage

June 23, 2023
Dermatology. Staff has been wonderful. Reception directed me to wrong place but then I went to old building and waited for appointment and was told to go back to place I started out. Not user friendly, ended up late for the appointment. They should use clear signage for where to go in appointment link.

You better off not coming here

I had a stroke, I think if something is wrong with you, you better off not coming here. You come with one problem, they give 5 more. I was only fed breakfast, nothing else.

Easy to find a way around

June 23, 2023
Easy to find a way around. Staff are great. It’s just the waiting around for appointments that can take a while. Communication letters sent to say sorry we couldn’t reach you, you have missed your appointment. 3 or 4 letters about same appointments , duplicate appointments causes confusion as to which appointment it regards to.
