Know my history, have regular appointments

May 3, 2023
I was referred to the hospital from my old GP practice and they know my history. I had eye surgery here and was there for half a day. I have regular appointments with them.

Ward and staff were wonderful

Went into hospital after lying all night in the hall. I was looked after on the Edgbaston ward and the nurses were wonderful. I was very ill and couldn't complain about a thing. Food was good too.

Really good

April 24, 2023
My husband took me to the A&E as I was in severe pain. They saw me and sent me to the GP service within the hospital, I had to wait a while. But the GP saw me, done several tests and said that I had a kidney infection. They prescribed me medication, they were really good.

Appointments can feel rushed

April 24, 2023
Mum has a hearing impairment. They've put her name down for a routine appointment and I've had to chase for the appointment. Dependent on the doctor is dependent on how well they explain things, sometimes they use words that we don't understand. We didn't understand what was going on. They should have visual aids to show what the issue is and make it easier to understand. You have a 20 minute appointment which makes you feel rushed.

Nice food good care

April 24, 2023
I was on an acute ward. Social services came to see me to see if I was okay to be discharged home. They didn't do much they asked a few questions. The car whilst I was at the hospital was good and the food was nice - can't complain. But I would much rather be at home.

Unsure what's happening with appointment

April 24, 2023
I had an appointment in the old heritage block. When I got there I knocked on the door and no one was there. I ended up walking over the main part of the hospital which I struggled with. A nurse from another appointment is trying to find out where the appointment for today will be. I've also received 4 letters in the post for 4 different dates for appointments, but I did receive a text message for the appointment today, just unsure what's happening or where to go.
