Good and friendly staff.

November 28, 2023
It's okay. Nothing has gone badly. Just been there recently assigned there for my long term condition. The staff are good. They are friendly. Recently I went for an appointment and was waiting an hour later than the time. No one explained to me what was happening and why the wait was longer.

Staff lacked compassion

November 27, 2023
My daughter was transferred here from Birmingham Children's. The staff lacked compassion and just treated us like an ordinary job and not someone who needed specialist care and attention.

Overcrowded, poor seating, dirty toilets.

I went to renal outpatients a number of times. It's overcrowded with poor seating and dirty toilets. They need more staff at each service level.

No proper communication

November 27, 2023
I had to go to this hospital in 2022 however I was supposed to go to Good Hope but due to covid I had to go to the QE. Then they sent me to the Royal Orthopaedic and they found that I had a heart condition. Because of this they sent me to the QE again. The problem they have is communication. There is no proper communication. I ended up in Good Hope. I was not happy about the information and the communication provided.

I went to A&E at 1:30pm and I was finally seen at 9pm

November 23, 2023
I arrived at A&E at 1:30pm and was seen at 9pm. It was a very frustrating experience. I went back home at 11:30pm and now I am here again because the hospital pharmacy gave me the wrong medication after a wait of 1 hour I have finally got the right medication.

The staff are very friendly. The parking is horrible. I waited 15 minutes to get a parking space. The good thing is that it is free for those with a disabled blue badge.
