I was told that I had an urgent issue with my blood but I have been waiting a long time for an appointment at Heartlands.

Still awaiting treatment for ear infection

June 3, 2024
I attended my appointment here for treatment of an ear infection. I was told they couldn't do anything at that appointment and I had to wait to see a consultant. I have been given multiple courses of antibiotics but none of them have worked.

Lack of personable care and privacy

June 3, 2024
My hip operation at this hospital went well. I was then told that I would be able to go home but had to wait all day for an enema that didn't happen until 7pm when I had people visiting. There is a lack of personable care and privacy here.

Missed appointment due to admin error

June 3, 2024
I missed my appointment with a heart consultant due to an admin error which meant I was not receiving correspondence from the hospital. I am still having issues with communication from the hospital to this day.

I visit this hospital regularly for ongoing management of COPD symptoms. I cannot fault the team of staff here they have been great. The only issue is there can be long waits for appointments.
