Review titled Shocking
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 June 2024
I didn’t want to go to A&E but my GP sent for suspected appendicitis so had no choice. One of the nurses came to talk to me about my insulin and eating, I tried to explain I felt too ill to take anything after I had been sick 3 times while I was talking she got distracted by the vending machine and bought herself snacks. The A&E dr though was absolutely lovely with me really took care of me he showed compassion and care which is rare for me to experience. Over the hours I got sicker and felt better then sicker. I was so ill by the early hours one lovely nurse found me a trolley on the trauma ward I had never felt so ill in my life. The biggest shock though was I had gone 13 hours without a drink and I kept asking 5 different nurses and never got any answers. The nurse on duty last night offered me a drink of water that wasn’t even mine it was a cup from a previous patient. Good Job I was on the ball. The A&E dr came to see me before he finished he could tell I wasn’t well where some felt I was faking it (history of mental health and that’s all some see). Discharged this morning while still very unwell as they couldn’t find a cause. Although a bad experience a massive shout out to 3 nurses and one dr!

Review titled Wonderful treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Phillip - Posted on 05 June 2024
I visited audiology for my new hearing aids. The person I saw was friendly and professional putting me at ease very quickly. The result was me leaving with new hearing aids setup and enabling me to hear things I had not for quite some time. I cannot fault the care and attention during my visit. Thank you

Review titled Exceptional service A&E and SAU Harrogate and York
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sandra - Posted on 25 May 2024
Harrogate A&E contacted SAU at Yorkshire District Hospital to organize a surgeon to repair an injury to my lip. The nurse at A&E did an exceptional job at temporary repair for the journey to the SAU. The surgeon at SAU was considering leaving the steristrip in place as perfectly aligned and started to “heal”. The surgeon decided on stitches as repairs were needed on inner lip also. Surgeon put me as ease explaining the procedure and why. Great conversation though I didn’t always respond as concerned about speaking while lip was being repaired. It was 19:00 when arrived and almost midnight when left SAU. Hope the surgeon was able to grab a snack and rest before next patient. He was very caring and friendly. Someone you would want as a friend/ neighbor. Sandra

Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Tracy Smith - Posted on 08 May 2024
Couldn't fault the care I received in Accident & Emergency and the Urgent Care Centre. Initially went to A&E where I was seen and triaged very quickly to the UCC. Once there I was assessed by a Nurse Practitioner who sent me for an x-ray and then saw the same Nurse again on my return for the diagnosis (broken foot) and treatment/advice. All the staff that I came into contact with were very professional and caring. I arrived at A&E at 8.15am and left UCC at 10.00am. Thank you!!

I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone at York Hospital. Staff were very kind and helpful. It's obviously not ideal needing to visit a hospital but the staff really put me at ease. Thank you!

Today I went to YDH to the Cardio Respiratory Department for a Stress Echocardiogram. This is just a note to thank the physiologist and his colleague for their friendly and efficient manner of the procedure, they do the NHS proud and thanks once again John Daniel

Review titled Terrible A&E staff and service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 May 2024
After waiting 11 hours in A&E and having no pain killers or tests done, I was finally sent at 10.00am to the hospital GP due to this being faster than waiting further hours in A&E! After a total of 14 hours in York hospital, I was just given antibiotics and sent home. Not to mention the night staff on A&E were extremely rude to everyone in the waiting room, they were not tentive and had clearly forgotten how to speak to people with basic manners and social skills. I am absolutely appalled by this service and next time would rather suffer and attempt the GP practice the next day rather than being sat in A&E with extremely rude staff in a hostile environment!

Review titled Outstanding care and expertise
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Janice H - Posted on 03 April 2024
I attended York Hospital for a guided steroid injection for a painful hip condition and was highly anxious. However, I received a first class level of treatment from entering the hospital to leaving (and on time). The consultant radiologist was professional, reassuring and explained everything he was doing. The observing registrar and nurse who were also in the procedure were equally as professional and caring. I cannot fault the care and expertise I received, and I left the hospital feeling much better and in less pain, than when I entered.
