Review titled Lovely staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 March 2024
I accompanied my mother to A&E after a suspected stroke. The hospital was very busy, but the staff were organised, helpful and good humoured. It took time, but the team were very thorough and reassuring. Thanks for everything.

Review titled Excellent triage and diagnosis, then everything stopped.
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Tony - Posted on 21 February 2024
Took my wife to Frimley Park Hospital at approximately 1pm on a Sunday. Arrived and was seen by the reception staff almost immediately. Ten minutes later saw the triage nurse and sent for X-ray. Ten minutes later, X-ray complete, back to A & E. And emergency. Almost immediately seen by a nurse again who confirmed my wife had a broken wrist. Had only been there about half an hour at this stage. Then everything ground to a halt. Still there three hours later. At this time hardly anyone in A & E. After I enquired as to when my wife would be seen lo and behold ten minutes later we were seen. Arm in cast, job done and we left. Everything up to diagnosing the wrist break was done very, very quickly. Could not complain at all. You are then thinking “we’ll be out of here shortly”. Unfortunately between diagnosis and treatment was so frustrating.

Review titled Fantastic, friendly treatment.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sue Frayn - Posted on 26 February 2024
Went to A & E today following a fall at home a week ago. I was seen within five minutes of arriving, had x rays five minutes later which confirmed that I had broken my wrist. Everyone was friendly, helpful and reassuring. I can’t fault the way that I was looked after today.

Review titled Great experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sue Smith - Posted on 19 January 2024
Both my parents have been seen in A E C U during the last 12 months. On each occasion they could not have asked for better treatment. Everyone in the department has been courteous and kind despite the busy workload. The department was clean and friendly and they were treated with respect and dignity. Neither of them have had reason to attend hospital regularly and are in advanced years yet their experience could not have been better. Thank you.

Review titled No answer
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 January 2024
I was trying to find out what had happened to a Consultants referral to the spinal surgical team after a wait of 22 weeks. After being on hold, listening to lots of options I eventually ( I think) got through to the correct department only to be cut off after a 15 minute wait. No mesage at all - just the dial tone - during that peiod. How do I get an answer? My symptoms are increasing in severity all the time.

Review titled Falta de ética
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Sandra - Posted on 04 March 2024
pediatric emergency nurses are inhumane! The two times I went, one with my daughter with a fever of 39.6 and the other with my baby with a fever of 39.4. On those two occasions they were insensitive, unresponsive and unethical. They saw my daughter with a high fever and they didn't give her anything, I had to measure her fever and give her ibuprofen and paracetamol, put cold compresses on her and take care of her until her fever went down. My baby's case was exactly the same. I had to tell the nurse and she was just walking around, smiling, eating potatoes. Another nurse took the urine patch off my baby so hard that it left his testicles red and made him scream in pain. They took two drops urine tests on my son and with that they told me a result! . Really, that area to be childish is very intractable and inhumane. I hope you don't have to go to that place! Because if you are going to go you will have to take care of your children alone (with your thermometer, your medicines and manage alone for many hours until the doctor shows up) and who knows whose results they will give you.
