Review titled Calm, thorough and reassuring
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 March 2024
We had to visit Children’s A and E yesterday with our son. It was very busy and we had a bit of a wait but the service was amazing. The lady dr we saw was just so lovely and friendly, still smiling and joking even though it was clear they were very busy. Her care was so reassuring for us as parents, with various tests and obs sorted promptly with such kindness and compassion. Once she had discharged us we went away feeling so much reassurance and confident of what to do if we needed help again.

Review titled I'm here in ambulance bed, to be slagged off for being I'll!!!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 11 March 2024
I arrived to the hospital by ambulance, I am younger than the OAP age and in my late 30s, I unfortunately have a heart condition, which sparked off a very bad experience at home to which 1st response was with me until the paramedics arrived, total 5 people to help me as I was seriously unwell. Unfortunately my GP prescribed a drug that should never of been prescribed as it was contradicting the other drugs I was on (legal prescribed) which at home caused me to pass out, throw up and be dizzy throughout the whole day, best thing as per paramedics, if I continued to take this I could of gone intl cardiac arrest. So that's the breakdown! I arrived and was sitting in the hallway facing the A&E team at the hospital, bare in mind my notes where just given to them, now let me remind the A&E team, I could hear you slagging me off, I could hear everything you said but little did you know once I saw the doctor, he said the same thing do not take this medication it with everything else could of killed you. I was in a bed with a high blood pressure for me, and told to get out of the bed and sit in a chair, bare in mind I told the paramedics my head is lightheaded etc the same I felt at home before I passed out, but hey the A&E staff wanted to say "he does know this is a hospital" the lack of compassion from the staff was a disgrace!! Be ashamed of yourselfs it was only the day staff who finished at 8pm. The evening staff where lovely and friendly, the doctor was excellent and apologised I was sent to the waiting room as I should of been seen straight away, (again cheers to the day staff, for putting me in a bad condition)

Review titled Neglect and mismanagement
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 March 2024
My father was left to slowly waste away, unable to eat or drink, and was even discharged in this state before having to be re-admitted. When eventually he had surgery he is now so weak that he is not recovering. He is still very poorly and we are being told this level of pain over a week after the operation is normal. Not being able to eat is not normal.

Review titled Thank you to Worthing Colonoscopy Team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 February 2024
I would just like to thank all the staff in the colonoscopy department. Despite the nature of the procedure being embarrassing, I was made to feel like a normal human being. I was very apprehensive in the lead up to the procedure but the entire experience was as stress-free as could be.

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mike B - Posted on 01 February 2024
I was referred for an urgent colonoscopy and on the day I was in and out within 2 hours. Everyone was friendly and professional. They talked through everything they were doing and I cannot fault the service I received on the day. Everyone I interacted with was kind and friendly and they conducted their role with a smile on their face. So a big thank you to everyone if they read this.

Review titled Excellent and Professional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 06 January 2024
Fitted for newer hearing aids just before Christmas, I then needed a scope to look at my vocal cords. Everyone from reception to being called in to see the doctor was kind, considerate and professional. I was not kept waiting at any point and everything was explained clearly with a very quick diagnosis for my voice loss. One nurse even held my hand when something made me a little nervous. I've been receiving support from audiology since the 1980s and all these years later I can find no fault with anything.

Absolutely amazingly efficient department. Referred by GP for walk in appointment, and went to Worthing Hospital just after 9am this morning. Booked in immediately by very pleasant Reception staff, barely had time to sit down before being called. Finished and back to car park all within 15 minutes! All staff very efficient, friendly and professional, thank you all very much
