  1. Review titled Friendly, helpful and professional staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I attended WGH today with blood pressure problems and during my time there the staff were so kind, caring and helpful. Thank you to all concerned, you're a great team and an asset to the area. I'm very grateful for all your help.

  2. Review titled Good service and friendly staff

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    Attended for my little boy after ringing 111. We were seen quickly and all the staff were friendly. The doctor took time to explain the outcome and what to do if things change. The pathway seemed to work seemlessly from reception, triage, obs taken and seeing the doctor. A great service to have in Kendal.

  3. Review titled friendly and relaxing

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I was so well treated by so many friendly staff I was made to feel like a v i p and throughout the day there was always someone there to reassure me. As an nervous older patient I could not have asked for better treatment from everyone. I cannot speak highly enough of my experience. Well done everyone

  5. Review titled Colonscopy Department and Staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Stephen Ellwood - Posted on 15 December 2022

    After arriving anxious of what was to come, the receptionist, nursing staff and colonoscopy team couldn’t have been warmer and have made me feel any more comfortable that I was in good hands. Amazing people doing an amazing job

  6. Review titled Contact is *so* difficult

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Gordon - Posted on 02 December 2022

    I have a departmental letter from you. It does not give a phone number or e-mail address. Your website does not give departmental phone numbers - nor an e-mail address. I phoned the one 'general' number I have for you - and got through to the right department but in the wrong hospital (Lancaster). I really think you ought to consider your *clients* interest in providing simple ways to contact departments by phone and by e-mail.

  7. Review titled Exceptional care and treatment, thank you all

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 15 November 2022

    From the caring receptionist to the lovely, thoughtful and compassionate student nurses, nurses and x-ray team my experience after very badly injuring my ankle at 7 am was wonderful. Between 8 am and 10.15 whilst I was there this incredible team could not have been more professional or caring. Not only care but lovely humour when they asked how I had damaged myself so early, an offer of placing my bag of frozen peas in the freezer so they didn't spoil, what exceptional staff, working extremely hard with a lot of patients needing health care treatment.

  10. Review titled Appointment

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 15 September 2022

    I was unable to attend an appointment due to ill health. I phoned and left a voice message and i then receive a letter to say i did not attend the appointment. I have phoned umpteen times to confirm i did leave a voicemail. and today the phone line goes dead after 30 secs. I too work in a hospital and i find this is a very disappointing service.
