The staff were fantastic, and I was well looked after. The only downside was the food which was atrocious!

Horrendous experience, low staff numbers

My husbands care when admitted here was horrendous. There was one nurse looking after 6 patients. I had to carryout all personal care, and I fear that if I had not my husband would have just been left. There were clearly staffing issues and they just could not cope.

The diabetes clinic is very good. I have a severe phobia of needles and they have ensured that I am supplied with auto-covered needles. They have treated me with such kindness and understanding, and have done their very best to meet my needs.

I have been receiving ongoing cancer treatment at the hospital. The care I have received has been excellent. I cannot fault the team, the staff are all great.

The service I have received has been brilliant. The doctors are wonderful, and the nurses are lovely. They are clearly understaffed and chronically underfunded.

Parking is a nightmare, my car has been damaged in the carpark. I have a blue badge but there are never any disabled spaces available.

Good service but waiting times are awful

So far I am happy with the care I have received in the maternity department, although waiting times are out of control! During my last visit I was in the clinic all day before finally being seen, examined and given the all clear. I do not wish to complain but a whole day spent in an uncomfortable chair waiting around for assessment is very difficult when heavily pregnant.

Understaffed postnatal ward

December 13, 2023

After a traumatic birth, baby and I were admitted overnight for observation. The ward was very busy, the midwives were rushed off their feet and struggling to care for everyone. Baby's hearing test raised a concern and a follow up appointment was made, which was done quickly , with speedy results which was great.
