  1. Review titled Very caring and friendly

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Carly brimage - Posted on 02 May 2024

    I would just like to thank the children's a&e team for being kind and sharing so much compassion for myself and my son who had a couple of visits including an overnight stay. They were very caring and patient and gave my son the care he needed. Please pass on my gratitude to the team who made my son feel at ease even though he can be a very nervous patient.

    Thank you for the team who cared for me today. Reception was well staffed with compassionate admin and doctor who understood my case. I was reviewed formally within the hour by another compassionate doctor. Thank you to the nhs for working seemlessly and reassuring me today and always!

  3. Review titled Excellent experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Jackie Grindrod - Posted on 14 February 2024

    Today I attended the Radiology department on C Level at Southampton General Hospital, for a Barium Swallow. Not a particularly nice procedure but the staff, particularly the 3 in the xray room with me were absolutely wonderful. So friendly, yet professional, supportive and kind. Very knowledgeable. A completely positive experience. Thank you.

  4. Review titled Superb treatment at A&E

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mike B - Posted on 09 February 2024

    Superb treatment , and they talk to you on their level - they are unbelievably busy, but stillso sharp, on the ball and super efficient and so kind to all the patients. What impressed me was the obvious joy the staff exhibited as they went about their duties - laughing and joking - delightful environment- Thank you so much for being there for us

  5. Review titled Poor leadership

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 29 January 2024

    The cdu1 leadership is poor and lacks any respect for due process. The nurse in charge was rude, lacked professional courtesy and aggressive. This is not what you would expect from this service

  6. Review titled Good experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mary Cockerill - Posted on 11 January 2024

    I was so apprehensive about my colonoscopy, but everyone was so kind and professional, nothing to worry about. Particularly the nurse who did my cannula and helped me prepare. But everyone was great. I can't tell you what a relief it was to find this dreaded procedure went so well.

  7. Review titled Absolutely amazing surgical pathway

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Nikki - Posted on 09 January 2024

    It’s a stressful thought having to take your child for an operation, but the John Atwell ward/team (including theatre staff/post op staff) have got the paediatric pathway down to a tee. Everything happened smoothly and all involved were sooo friendly and informative. They really set my mind at the ease knowing they were truly going to look after my child.

  8. Review titled First rate technical & people skills

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Stephen Hales - Posted on 14 November 2023

    After seeing my Consultant a week ago at Lymington, I joined the waiting list for a Heart Mri, to inform his decision on whether I needed a Pacemaker or Icd Defibrillator. At 18.30 last Friday evening I had a call from the Superintendent Radiologist at Southampton, offering a scan the following afternoon,as they had a cancellation. I racked up at 13.30 and proceeded with my Scan. I cannot speak too highly of the two Radiologists - welcoming, caring, skilfully completing the process. They were willing to discuss technical points with me. Your work that afternoon will impact on how my heart performs for the rest of my life. I thank you from the bottom of my (dissynchronous) heart.

  10. Review titled Communication problems

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Julian Davies - Posted on 29 November 2023

    My sister was admitted to the catheter lab for a lung operation. I rang the post op ward number 4 times to get through. I was told she was still in recovery. I went through the main switchboard to the catheter lab. They could not give me any information because the'coordinator' had gone home, did not know where she was. Suggested ringing the ward again in a couple more hours. Complete lack of information, very poor communication skills and very inefficient system to keep track of patients.
