Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Geoffrey James Cardus - Posted on 17 April 2024
I underwent cataract removal surgery recently. The whole experience from check-in to discharge was exemplary. All communication before, during and after the procedure was clear, thorough and delivered with sensitivity and empathy. The procedure itself was delivered calmly, kindly and caringly. Additionally, the earlier pre-op experience was done with great sensitivity and empathy. It never felt rushed. I was encouraged to ask questions and seek clarity or a broader explanation of anything of concern to me. It was made very clear that I could get back in touch with the department at any time if I thought of anything (the phone number was highlighted for me). The staff were very calm, clear and kind. When I am due the same procedure on my other eye I strongly suspect I will not feel the same anxiety as I did for this, the first time round. Thank you.

Review titled Outstanding maternity care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Kelly Boland - Posted on 06 April 2024
During my 9 month pregnancy, delivery and postnatal period, I have received nothing but the most amazing care. From the community midwives and hcas at rsh to the triage and delivery team at prh, which includes the hcas, students, catering staff and volunteers, nothing was too much trouble and I felt they really listened to my needs and treated me like an individual. After having my first child during the pandemic and not having much contact with anyone in my care team I was afraid of what it would be like second time around, and it could not have been more different. I will be forever grateful for the nhs and especially sath maternity care for bringing both of my children into the world safely and especially for the care I have received so thank you, you should be very proud of every one of your incredible staff.

Review titled Great
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ellie - Posted on 27 March 2024
I went in after cutting my finger today that needed stitches. Was seen very quickly and the two guys that fix it were amazing. The kindness was amazing, as I had my four year old daughter with me as had no one to watch her. While I got sorted a very kind nurse sorted a screen out for my daughter. Putting on frozen for her and chatting with her. This just shows what wonderful people we have working in our NHS. I am so very thankful. These people have a busy and difficult job. And still give us a lovely, friendly and professional service. Many thanks 🙏

Review titled Telford A and E Department 2nd August
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 August 2023
Triage nurses where a shambles, been here since 9pm no water facility's available. They spent most of the night chatting and laughing in initial assessment 1. The lady taking bloods and ecg needs to find an alternative job with her vile and rude attitude towards the patients. You get treated better if you was a animal I'd avoid this nhs if you want to remain healthy. Absolutely disgusting place

Review titled poor outcome
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 July 2023
I was taken from my gps surgery by ambulance with very severe back pains. The staff were all great and I had all the usual test in a and e which proved negative but the severe pain continued . A consultant said I was to have a back xray then stay in overnight for pain management and perscribed a strong painkiller but the xray department turned down his request. There was no bed - I would have to continue sitting in a chair all night and no painkiller as I had been perscribed a controlled drug which I couldn't have from a ande. I was taken home shattered and exhausted

Review titled Final colonoscopy 5 year surveillance, thanks to staff.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 May 2023
Following major surgery for bowel cancer in June 2018 I had my final surveillance colonoscopy today. Conditions under which staff work have changed considerably over these 5 years, and the "failing " tag for some departments has been given prominence in the media. I just need to say that the care and treatment to diagnose, remove my cancer,and, over the last 4 years through COVID restrictions, to keep me reassured by follow-up surveillance, has been impeccably professional. Congratulations to all staff, from consultants through various grades and specialities of nurses, and student nurses who have treated me with empathy, care and reassurance. I must acknowledge and also give credit to the way the Trust has spread its net wide to recruit staff from all over the world and how those coming to our shores have played personally such an essential role in my treatment at various points. I know the Trust and its staff have been grappling to put right long-term problems and negative feedback in some Departments; please feel reassured that in my experience your teams in Endoscopy and Surgery have been faultless in my treatment over 5 years.
