  1. Review titled Brilliant experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 13 February 2023

    My 1 year old son came in for a Mcug in the xray department, bearing in mind they don’t usually do them on children over 6 months unless absolutely necessary. I just wanted to say that everyone was so helpful and informative. Thank you so much.

    Thank you for your kind words regarding the care your son received in the X-Ray Department. It is heartening to know you were both treated with such kindness and encouragement during your appointment. Our staff work hard to ensure their patients receive the highest standard of care, and we appreciate your positive remarks about the treatment you received from the entire clinical team involved in your sons care. I have passed on your comments to the staff involved, which I am sure they will be very pleased to read. Thank you for taking the time to write to us to express your gratitude.

  2. Review titled Great A&E care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Andy - Posted on 11 February 2023

    I am writing to express my thanks with the treatment I received at York’s A&E department on Saturday 4th February 2023. I arrived about noon, supported by my wife, with head injuries resulting from a cycle crash. I found the professionalism and care from all members of the team whether registration, MRI/X-ray scans to the doctors and nurses who treated me was exceptional. This distressing experience for both myself and my wife was mitigated by this care so many thanks. One simple example was that one of the senior nurses brought a cup of tea for my wife which was really appreciated. Another was the follow up call from the doctor who primarily looked after me that evening.

  3. Review titled The pinnacle of professionalism within healthcare.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Matthew Croker - Posted on 06 January 2023

    I don't have much experience with York Hospitals, and I do hear from other people that York Trust is a poor trust, but I can honestly say that I've never been as impressed with a team as I was today whilst waiting for my Neurology outpatient appointment. I saw a team that was under immense workload pressure. However, the professionalism, respect and compassion shown towards visiting patients to this busy department was exemplary. The consultant even apologised for my wait, even though I've waited longer in a checkout line at the local supermarket than I did for him to see me. In my opinion, I was grateful to be seeing a healthcare professional at the peak of their career (i.e. a consultant) and to have interacted with a multitude of healthcare professionals working in such a hostile, demanding and emotionally exhausting environment. Volunteers taking time to help patients find places, healthcare professionals stopping what they're doing to help a struggling patient complete a form and reassurance to patients nervous of confused during their visit are all things I witnessed during my 30mins of arriving and leaving my neurology outpatient appointment. Honestly, my words are not enough to express my admiration to this department for what I experienced. I don't know if this is a standard achieved by all teams within York Trust Hospitals, but I know - if you're visiting Neurology - you won't find a better team.

  5. Review titled Great staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Elaine Holding - Posted on 25 October 2022

    Just spent a week in york everyone was fantastic. The only thing that really let's it down is the staff in the discharge lounge they were so rude and unhelpful. Maybe they need training in customer service.

  6. Review titled Excellent paediatric care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 23 September 2022

    We have just experienced excellent care from paediatric A&E - all the staff were caring, thorough and efficient. There was a follow up the next day by the same paediatrician which was again reassuring and thorough. A phone call from the same paediatrician on the next day with information about the outcome of tests. We appreciated the continuity of care and quick resolution to our child’s illness. Thank you.

  7. Review titled Question

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Sue Flower - Posted on 09 July 2022

    Why are there so many empty beds in the main corridor of york hospital? Last count 20 beds. Some of the beds have dirty linen on them. There are also a number of mattresses in a cage. All looks so untidy, cluttered & totally unprofessional
