Reception staff incredibly rude
Accident and emergency services
April 15, 2018
I have always thought Queen Elizabeth hospital provided excellent service only I have to say I am incredibly disappointed as the night receptionist was rude, offensive and ought to choose work not within the public sector as public sector work relies heavily on empathy and kindness.
Terrible care
March 12, 2018
My relative went to hospital with swollen lip and it turned out to be a quite deep infection in his mouth. They were treating it as an allergy without antibiotics or any form of drip as he couldn't eat.
During the first 4 days he had no IV, drip etc and lost a stone. After complaining to PALS they took it seriously and improved but the damage was already been done. I've never seen my relative complain and it was horrible to see him cry.
We felt there was not enough staff and they relied on agencies staff.

An excellent service is given
Hearing aid services

Hearing Aid Clinic - an excellent service is given, staff always helpful. They change the tubes if I have not managed to do it myself and of course supply batteries.
Received poor care
January 31, 2018
I received very poor end of life care for a relative. Ward busy and patient left in a side room. Not checked for hours. I raised this with a QE consultant who agreed. Health and social care needs to be better integrated. As a social worker it is extremely frustrating that services aren't better linked.
Appointments constantly being cancelled
January 31, 2018
When very ill like me, wait months for appointment then cancelled. Anxiety goes through roof
Torn muscle in knee had a small operation
January 31, 2018
Never had an operation before staff and doctors were great had very good care. We are very lucky to have NHS, have to fight hard to keep it.
Has to wait for over three hours
January 29, 2018
I ended up in the Queen Elizabeth hospital waiting to be seen by the RAID team. I had to wait over three hours in distress and self-harming without being seen. The staff had no consideration on how I was feeling.
Appointment and care experiences
Outpatients

Sometimes delayed - appointment and waiting times when you're there. Always get an appointment - always get follow up. Good quality care.
brilliant staff
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Had Tumour removed from my jaw all who dealt with me are brilliant cant thank them enough
Badly lead management team
Accute ward
December 3, 2017
My medical feedback from the consultant had me identified as a known substance misuser which was untrue and could have lost me my job. I was excluded by the management team to attend a life changing meeting regarding my partner of 20yrs due to not having POA. They do not value long time carers input and they make costly unsafe decisions which impacts on the patient future care.
