Review titled Excellent decision making
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Elaine Melton - Posted on 21 June 2023
My daughter had an appointment today the doctor was prepared and already had a care plan. She was an excellent communicator had empathy and compassion and took ownership of the decision to arrange a preop appointment the very next day and my daughter was booked in for her procedure next week. An amazing experience in what has been a difficult health issue. This doctor is an asset to the team at Ormskirk and as a mother of four would advise anyone needing care to be seen by this amazing doctor. Thank you

Rated 5 stars out of 5

I was in for day surgery and was cared for by the nurses on F ward. They were incredible, nothing was a problem and they couldn't have been nicer and more attentive. Thank you so much guys, you do an amazing job.

Review titled Great experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5

The ophthalmology department has much improved. Attended the virtual glaucoma clinic where every test was done in an hour. Much, much faster than waiting to see a consultant. Very pleased with the service.

Review titled Dr was born to do her job
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Aaron morley - Posted on 05 April 2023
Visited this evening when my little boy had abdo pain, was see very quickly and assessed by a lovely triage nurse. The Consultant who saw my son was born to be a kids Dr, she was absolutely fantastic with him and so caring. My son has nicknamed her Dr tickles, the Nhs is a much better place for Drs like her. I’m so sorry we didn’t get your name, we visited 5/4/23 in the evening. Hope this message gets back to the staff! You are all doing a fantastic job and are a credit to your profession.

Review titled Hysteroscopy at Ormskirk Hospital
by warmfy64 - Posted on 27 February 2023
After hospital stay due to gynae issues, had a biopsy of womb done at bedside, no local anaesthetic, big mistake, it was hell. Terrible contraction like pains for 2 hours after, was very nearly sick from pain so struggled to get meds down after to help - horrendous, worse than child birth & that was traumatic enough after a ventouse delivery, no joke! I do need to say however that the staff were amazing & really looked after me so well during my stay. Fast forward 2 weeks as I needed to have a hysteroscopy to back up the biopsy, suffice to say I was a nervous wreck about getting it done after my previous experience & scaring myself half to death reading the horror stories online! I took paracetamol, ibuprofen & codeine as advised by my GP prior to the procedure and I am so pleased to say that the hysteroscopy went well, I didn't feel a thing, no pain, staff were amazing and said I was in control and they would stop at anytime if it got too much but it didn't. Luckily for me my biopsy results came back clear and the camera also confirmed this. I know it can be a stressful, worrying time but please keep positive and remember it might not be as bad as you expect. The moral of the story is to make sure you're well informed with every bit of pain relief or anaesthesia in place before going ahead with a biopsy as since speaking with the Dr's, in their experience it is the most painful part of the procedure. Good luck.

Review titled Awful experience
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Joel - Posted on 05 January 2023
Attended with a deep cut on my knee joint, was extremely rude and insisted it had happened drunk (I don't drink at all) told me had to go to A&E in Wigan, and wait up to 35 hours when had already been bleeding for 16 hours, bandaged it up for me extremely poorly and had soaked through badly before I'd even got back to my car, and they wouldn't do anything for me in terms of closing the wound even though it had started to clot, just sent me away without any good explanation, awful service from the staff I was seen from.

Review titled They were truly exceptional.
by Aitch - Posted on 10 January 2023
I was recently a patient at Ormskirk Hospital for a gynaecology appointment for an unpleasant and potentially painful procedure. The staff were wonderful, they held my hand, kept me informed of what was happening and literally guided me through the whole thing, I can’t thank them enough. They were truly exceptional.
