Waited only an hour
Accident and emergency services
November 29, 2022
Fell over hurt my arm. I went to A&E and waited only an hour. Sent for x-rays, nothing broken just the muscle playing up. They put a sling on but it was too short, it took me weeks to get better.
You have to wait for up to 8 hours
November 29, 2022
Been there loads of times, ED department sometimes you have to wait for up to 8 hours or longer. When seen the staff they tell me what is happening.
Not homely

Lots of medicine and not homely.
They tell me I have to wait
Cancer services
November 29, 2022
They put me in touch with the counselling services Bupa or Macmillan. Cancer is an emotional disturbance. With my mental health sometimes they delay things with me. They tell me I have to wait to get an appointment.
They do really well

Diabetic eye screening clinic functions really well. They do really well and do my blood tests’ usually every 6 months but since Covid it is every 12 months.
Transport is awful
November 29, 2022
Used diabetic clinic once and it’s not good. when they see me everything is great with staff and treatment. But the transport is awful and too far to travel.
They were understaffed
A&E
November 28, 2022
Was in A&E for 18 hours. Staff were brilliant but they were understaffed. The system is under pressure so you have to wait. But the actual service you receive from the staff is absolutely fantastic under the circumstances.
5 hours wait to see the doctor
November 28, 2022
5 hours wait to see the doctor. Doctor in hospital is very good. very good service. The hospital is very clean. But you have to wait for 5 to 6 hours which is not good. I don’t want to go to doctors, I don’t use medicine or needles in my life. Don’t eat from restaurants. We eat natural and fresh food.
Staff were very helpful
November 25, 2022
Had 10 radiotherapy sessions over there, traffic is horrendous. Staff were very helpful and explained everything, had a wheelchair between the two hospitals but all was okay. No taxi’s at QE, I’ve been standing there waiting for a taxi to come.
They are okay
November 25, 2022
They are okay. I know they are busy. Had my cataracts done, I didn’t know until the doctors told me. I had both eyes done. Only half an hour but they were good. Bit strange because you are awake looking up. They are so clever.
