Review titled Excellent
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jo - Posted on 21 April 2024
1 excellent I put excellent down because it was! Nothing could be improved at all. The 2 nurses were amazing - the consultant too. The consultant even took me to see an ENT consultant because he had a free appointment. I was in absolute agony when I arrived, but within minutes they gave me morphine & codeine. Really the whole experience couldn't be improved upon! One very kind man working there gave my husband porridge & tea! Everyone was just so kind & courteous & professional & caring. I couldn't have wished for any better treatment & care, it was absolutely excellent! Thank you so much to all at Macclesfield A & E department! Jo

I was so impressed with how quickly the friendly and caring staff at macclesfield hospital looked after my son. We saw 3 people (receptionist, triage and wound nurse) and all 3 were professional, efficient, calming and so so nice! Thank you to all of you for making a stressful situation bearable ❤️🙏

Review titled Frustrating and upsetting
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Nicola Haynes - Posted on 08 April 2024
A close relative is on ward 4 and calling the ward for an update regarding her condition is impossible. If you manage to reach anybody with them hanging up on you they explain they will get a nurse to call back and they don't. I hope if a close relative of theirs is in the same position they do not experience this. It is very frustrating and upsetting as I have no idea how they are doing. I am fearful that they will not call me if she takes a turn for the worse. It is totally unacceptable. She has been in for over 2 weeks so it is not an isolated incident. I have tried at different times of the day with the same result. To add insult to injury they have lost her dressing and gown. This happened when she was in Macclesfield hospital last year also. Seems like they have a total disregard for patients belonging too.

Review titled Nice people , terrible process
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 March 2024
Over 2 days my husband who has sever back pain was sitting in uncomfortable chairs for 18 hours waiting to be told there is nothing we can do - go home . After the 2 days - 1 MRI - a few mins contact with specialists he is in so much pain he isn't sleeping, you managed to make things worse not better. I believe the problem is with the process not the staff. You used the Same day treatment centre as a holding pen, the only people who had contact with him there were kind and sympathetic, but had no authority/expertise to assess him. The people who were assessing him, including at Salford Royal had no sight of the patient so were just making decisions on symptoms with no concern over how long the decisions took and the impact on the patient. You have designed the "care" out of the process. creating an unsatisfactory experience for the patients and I assume the staff. The medical "treatment" he received was an MRI and a few minutes of consultants time. If these had been simple dedicated appointments it would have taken only a couple of hours of his time.

Review titled Wonderfully kind efficient warm friendly service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ann P - Posted on 27 March 2024
Had a fall on Saturday evening and on Tuesday arrived at A and E with a painful, swollen and bruised right foot at 12.36pm. I now know I have a broken 5th metatarsal. Everyone from the moment we arrived was so very kind patient, professional and super efficient. From reception, initial Triage, to L at the next stage, on to X-ray ( didn’t even have time to sit in waiting area before I went in) where I was escorted back to A and E and then back to L for boot fitting and advice. I can’t thank everyone enough and really do hope that whoever reads this will pass on my sincere and warm appreciation. I consider myself very lucky and blessed to have had such excellent care and on a day ( 27th March) when the news says people are dissatisfied with the NHS , I want to shout out for what a wonderful job you are all doing and send a huge Thank You!!

Review titled Out-of-hours GP visit
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Nicola Craine - Posted on 11 March 2024
I accompanied my father to an out-of-hours GP appointment, arranged via NHS 111 over the weekend. We were both very impressed with the efficiency of the service. The GP we saw was very thorough and reassuring. Thank you very much.

Pleasant surroundings. Hardly any waiting time. Friendly consultant and helpful nurse. Bloods taken on the spot so no need for another visit to local clinic.
