The department seems messy and unorganised

Maternity services
September 16, 2024
The maternity care at Solihull Hospital seems unorganised, manic and messy compared to Heartlands Hospital. The service seems delayed with long waiting times, which I think could be improved if staff communicated better between themselves. It seems like the staff have no idea on who has been seen or who needs to be seen. They could be understaffed which is causing problems. The staff are very nice though.

A good experience with a patient sonographer

The service here has been good, I've had a few scan appointments here. The sonographers were very patient and I had to keep going out and walking around because baby was not in the correct position.

Long wait for hernia appointment

I have been waiting for 12 months for an appointment about a hernia. If I have another long wait for the operation I will have to go private.

I was referred to the hospital on a cancer pathway. My appointment happened quickly. The doctors and nurses were excellent and following investigation and tests cancer was not detected. I cannot fault the service I received.

I did not feel listened to or understood

Outpatients
September 2, 2024
I had a specialist appointment at Solihull Hospital with a consultant. The appointment was very hard. I did not feel that the consultant knew why I was there or understood my explanation of the problems I have. There were some problems with language and me understanding him and I am unsure if he had problems understanding me. He knew nothing of my medical history. The letter I received following the appointment stated the exact opposite of what I explained and asked for. I have tried to call the secretary but have had no luck getting through. I feel disappointed about how my appointment went and with the final outcome.

Wonderful care during and after surgery

My husband came here for day surgery. The staff were great and nothing felt rushed. He ended up having to stay overnight and the care was wonderful throughout.
