Review titled Fantastic Staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gary - Posted on 06 March 2024
Was unfortunate (from a health perspective) to have to visit the A&E . Staff were great and very hard working but few in number. They coped admirably but shouldn't have to.

Review titled Nice people
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by JohnP - Posted on 11 March 2024
I was accompanying my wife - we had been sent from a clinic at the Nightingale to the Single Day Treatment place. We were amazed by how nice all the staff and professionals were throughout the day. Admittedly a long day - but several stages of preparation were done throughout our time in there. Eventually admitted to a ward. The pleasant experience continued. The interpersonal skills of all involved was noticeable. All staff seemed cheerful, approachable and helpful. I just hope they don't get soured by the inevitable grumpy and negative people.

Review titled Appendectomy - Great care!
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Went to A&E on Good Friday with abdominal pain. Whilst the wait for A&E was 10 hours the staff were brilliant from being seen to then being admitted. This was my first visit to a hospital for treatment. Thank you to all the staff on ward 309, surgical team, porters and anyone else I might have forgotten! Everyone was very caring and kept me at ease until surgery. Everything went well which meant I could leave and be back at home 24 hours after surgery.

Review titled Outstanding care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Carly - Posted on 22 March 2024
Our baby recently spent some time on the nicu before being transfered to another hospital closer to home. The care baby and ourselves received was absolutely fantastic. Having a baby on the nicu is emotionally, mentally and physically draining and if it wasn’t for the staff on this department being so kind and caring towards us I don’t know how we would of got through it. Baby has now had stays in 3 different hospitals and derby royal nicu by far has been the best. Thank you to everyone who treated my baby as if it was their own. From the bottom of my heart I am truly grateful. Baby E mum xx

Review titled Very poor Service
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 31 March 2024
My son had a problem with his knee and we spent 3 hours in ED (Blue Urgent) waiting to be seen- in small room, without windows and with other children who were coughing and vomiting. When I asked to wait in waiting area because I don’t want us to catch some viral, stuff was extremely unpolite and I was told he can catch a viral in supermarket so there is no reason not to wait with other poorly children. Although the doctor was very nice and polite, I’m very disappointed with other staff

Review titled A superb service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Stuart Atkins - Posted on 13 March 2024
I was referred to A&E from another department at the hospital for heart attack and stroke tests. The service I received from all of the staff was exemplary, from the receptionist to the doctor, I could not have received better care anywhere. The waiting time was short and the attention I received was very respectful, professional and caring. My sincere thanks to you all.

Review titled Missed appt due to poor parking, attitude of security staff
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 20 February 2024
I'd love to be able to give a review of my experience in the hospital, but I can't. I had an appointment there today for my yearly CPAP check. Drove around for 1.5.hrs trying to find a parking space, but couldn't so never made the appointment!! Waste of mine and the NHS's time!! I'm also disabled and when trying to join the queue for the disabled card park all I got was seriously bad attitude from the security guard and told to move on!!
