Rated 1 star out of 5
by Welshlass76 - Posted on 05 May 2023
Left hand doent know what right is doing or has done. Notes not up to date or completed at the time (no confidence right notes would then be made when eventually completed) One person says one thing another another. 5hrs and still treatment not received when told would be in clinic 3-4hrs. Noted handed over from previous visit and obviously not read and pushed to once side Awful shocking place

Review titled Shrewsbury A&E
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 May 2023
After attending A&E I needed emergency surgery, this was dealt with swiftly, but the nursing staff were not fully qualified, and had little knowledge, a canula was inserted and used but not done correctly which left me covered in blood and a very sore hand where the plastic had vent under my skin!I take blood thinners and they were stopped before surgery when I asked the next morning they hadn’t been given to me! As directed by the surgeon! The bed sheets had blood stains on them, and the toilets were dirty, this was my first and last visit to the Shrewsbury A&E department.

Review titled Ward 32 Friendly, caring staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 May 2023
I would like to thank everyone on ward 32 for looking after my 92 year old mum. There were so many examples of excellent care and good practice - friendly, empathy, cheerful, helpful, caring, open and honest with information , clean and tidy ward. It was not just mum, everyone in her bay received the same excellent care. The thing that could be improved and this has nothing to do with the ward staff but higher management- the food, it was tasteless. Thank you

Review titled Very poor pain management at Telford hospital
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Untreated pain patient - Posted on 15 April 2023
My GP and also the local basic pain management team director sent me here to one of your pain management anaesthetist consultants to get my pain addressed as it is too complex for basic local pain management in community to deal with and needs injections and other more direct interventional treatment rather than diet, exercise, mindfulness, etc all of which have been unsuccessful,. Problem is is that your consultant has denied me service and will not see me and has been rude by not even talking to me about my options or at all as I only found out by going to my GP and the referral assessment team who informed me of this. Disgusting behaviour from a team that should be working to treat pain rather than denying us our services we pay for as tax payers. How many other people have been denied the services like me? This needs auditing independently. Am still in severe pain with no help from anyone. Thanks for helping me, not! Shut this service down as it is not seeing or treating patients anyway so it is a complete waste of mine and other tax payers' money.

Review titled Day Surgery Dept
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Edwin (Bob) Hickman - Posted on 09 November 2022
I attended day surgery on 7th Nov for angiogram & angioplasty. I was very anxious upon arrival but immediately was welcomed and calmed down by the registration nurse. This experience continued throughout the day being cared for by several staff nurses. They were all so kind and loving to me and Professional in all tasks given. This standard of care continued in the xray operation department and was touched by the care given. Finally I would like to thank most sincerely all who looked after me in Day wing. It was also pleasing to see a student nurse following in this profession for the future. Very encouraging. Thank you all so much.

Review titled Cataract Surgery
Rated 5 stars out of 5

My elderly mother was petrified at having this initial procedure carried out: Both the consultant and team provided outstanding support and kindness prior to, during and after my mother's surgery. I cannot thank them enough for helping her combat her fears.

Review titled Total Disaster
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Sian - Posted on 24 October 2022
My 3 year old daughter woke at 12:30 am unable to breath. The ambulance arrived, eid her obs and decided due to her low oxygen levels, she needed to be taken to hospital for treatment. We arrived at the hospital at 1am. By 6am we were still sat in the waiting room and had not seen anyone. My daughter got worse in that time and I had to tell the doctors/nurses this and ask for more medication as they failed to keep observing my daughter. During the whole time at the hospital, I was forced to sit in the waiting room with my daughter. No bed was offered. If it where an adult at the hospital then this would not have been an issue; however my daughter is 3 years old and obviously needs sleep. I am not sure how the hospital expect a child to get any rest while lying on a very uncomfortable chair or sitting on their parents knee. The while experience was an absolute farse from the second we walked into the hospital. I would absolutely not recommend. If your child requires medical help, travel that extra 20minutes to Liverpool as they are 100 times better and more equipped.

Review titled Very pleasantly surprised.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Deborah Whittle - Posted on 12 September 2022
Our 15 month old granddaughter sliced the top off, from a finger. A and E paediatric unit were superb. Swift. Thorough and caring. Receipt of a teddy bear was wonderful and much appreciated. A very positive experience and extremely grateful.
