UHB Solihull Hospital

I was referred to Solihull Hospital for an x-ray and other tests. The service was good but they could not find anything wrong to treat so I was referred to community services for physiotherapy.

I had a CT scan in October 2024 and received a letter to attend another one in January 2025. When I attended the appointment in January after waiting some time to be seen I was approached and told that I did not need another one and that the appointment was made in error. A disappointing service.

I have no complaints or concerns. Everything is good there I haven't had any issues.

I visited for a scan once and it was really good. They followed up with a letter which told me the appropriate next steps.

My scans went well, I was seen quickly on arrival.

I had a colonoscopy at Solihull Hospital. The appointment and procedure went well but I waited a long time for results and had to chase them up. Communication between the hospital and my GP surgery has not been great. After receiving the all clear from cancer I have just been discharged rather than transferred/referred to gastrology meaning that I will have to get back into the system via my GP surgery which is very difficult.

I am undergoing treatment for secondary breast cancer. The oncology team at Solihull Hospital are excellent. I am seen in person every three weeks but I can contact the team at any time over the telephone with any queries or concerns I have. They really are great.

I have to visit Solihull antenatal clinic for routine check ups that were previously provided at GP surgeries. Care is very good and I have no complaints, but travelling to the hospital is further, parking is difficult and I have to pay for parking. It is disappointing that this service has now fallen on hospital departments and is not provided in the local community.

I had a biopsy in the urology department. The appointment was scheduled quickly and I got the results quite quickly as well. They offer a good service and are very reassuring.

The postnatal care I received here was good.
