Absolutely incredible. I cant sing the staffs praises highly enough nor the medical care received. Despite challenging times I received the best care. Every single member of staff was kind, caring and exceptionally capable. Thank so much for for being there when I needed.

Review titled Excellent experience of A and E
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 August 2023
I visited A and E with my 91 year old mum, absolutely everyone we met was lovely, smily and went above and beyond! We were seen incredibly quickly and efficiently, - a special shout out to the girls in the blood dept who made my mum very comfy, even tucking her up with a blanket. You would not have known the dept was under incredible pressure but what a difference your collective positive attitude made to my mum's experience.

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Peter - Posted on 04 August 2023
I was admitted in a ambulance and from Aand e,Ward n2,c7 and dispach lounge l ws treated brilliantly. Every one l encountered were lovely even under extreme violence and racism from other patients. The only improvement lcan suggest would bea notice in the dispatch lounge saying it takes several hours toget your doctors letter and drugs. Thanks Peter

Review titled Unacceptable waiting time
by Deea86 - Posted on 06 June 2023
I was referred at Addenbrooke’s Dermatology Clinic in 2020 . After a very long wait I was finally seen in November 2021 . The doctor who saw me , said I will have a review appointment after a year in November 2022 . It’s now June 2023 and still didn’t receive an appointment. I called them twice and both times they said that my Gp needs to write to them again saying that my symptoms got worse and to asked to be seen faster. My Gp said this is ridiculous and they should see me. When I called the hospital again they said I am now on a non-emergency list and I’ll have to wait . I already waited a year and 8 months and this is unacceptable.
