Long waits, no follow ups, poor communication
October 17, 2023
I have had two recent experiences the first time I attended A&E and after a long wait I was sent home. The second visit to A&E resulted in me being admitted but communication was poor, nothing was really explained to me. My medication was changed but to date I have not had a follow up appointment. I have phoned the secretary of my consultant and told that there is nothing available and I just have to wait.
Care could have been better.

The care there could have been a bit better. In general they're understaffed and can't do everything. But everyone can always improve that's all I am going to say.
It's been a good hospital for me.

I was in the QE for a fortnight. I was taken in by ambulance. It's criticised a lot but it's been good for me. I ended up being sent to Good Hope.
They could do things quicker.

I went for a check up. They took x-rays of my arm to see when I can start physiotherapy but they haven't sent the results yet so physio hasn't started. They could do things quicker because I want to start physio.
They were good with my mom.

I was in a bay with four patients which was good. They were good with mom, being able to be around other people. She was admitted to A&E as she wasn't mobile even after having a knee operation. Having shooting pains in hip so she ended up being admitted.
Very quick treatment and looked after.

Treatment was good. Very quick. I was diagnosed with aggressive cancer. The hospital arranged to go to Birmingham. I was at the QE a short period. Well looked after. It was okay.
I didn't hear from my consultant.

I didn't hear from my consultant. I had to get my mother in law to call and chase it up. I get tired really quickly and that's how I got my appointment. I have to have a scan of the groin.
Clean hospital with happier staff.

I like this hospital. The staff are good. It's clean. Happier staff and they talk to you. You can wait a bit but the facilities are good when you go.
Communication about appointments is good.

I've been here a few times and communication is good about appointments. Staff are great and it's easy to get around. I've been going here enough times to know where I'm going now.
They are good. I didn't wait too long.

They are quite good, they're alright. I've been for an appointment. Went for blood tests. I had a chat with the doctor then went for bloods tests. I didn't wait too long but could have if lots of people would have been there.
