Caring staff, not enough info provided

July 24, 2023
Went for cancer treatment every 4 weeks. Caring staff but felt sometimes my questions and other patients questions weren't answered in enough details.

Excellent staff ,excellent care

General Surgery
July 23, 2023
In QE hospital following left nephrectomy. Couldn't have had better pre and post op care . On EPOC ward following surgery and then transferred to ward 7 to 8 before discharge . As a retired nurse myself I feel I can give reliable feedback and can only thank all members of the team from my consultant to the ward cleaners. I couldn't have received better care anywhere and all staff were kind and professional. My specialist nurse was also amazing . Please thank everyone involved .

2/3 months to be told shoulder was fractured

July 21, 2023
I had a fracture in my shoulder and they gave me strong medication. They referred me onto x-ray and said I'd get the x-ray results after 7 days. I had to self refer myself to the physiotherapy service there and they had results and told me it was fractured and said they should have sent me straight away instead of leaving it 2 or 3 months to get an answer.

Care was great, transferred to other hospital

Care was great when I was there but they couldn't care for me long term. They arranged for me to go to another hospital and it's been very good.
