Review titled Thank you to Worthing Colonoscopy Team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 February 2024
I would just like to thank all the staff in the colonoscopy department. Despite the nature of the procedure being embarrassing, I was made to feel like a normal human being. I was very apprehensive in the lead up to the procedure but the entire experience was as stress-free as could be.

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mike B - Posted on 01 February 2024
I was referred for an urgent colonoscopy and on the day I was in and out within 2 hours. Everyone was friendly and professional. They talked through everything they were doing and I cannot fault the service I received on the day. Everyone I interacted with was kind and friendly and they conducted their role with a smile on their face. So a big thank you to everyone if they read this.

Review titled Excellent and Professional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 06 January 2024
Fitted for newer hearing aids just before Christmas, I then needed a scope to look at my vocal cords. Everyone from reception to being called in to see the doctor was kind, considerate and professional. I was not kept waiting at any point and everything was explained clearly with a very quick diagnosis for my voice loss. One nurse even held my hand when something made me a little nervous. I've been receiving support from audiology since the 1980s and all these years later I can find no fault with anything.

Review titled Amazing walk in X Ray service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by VNuttall - Posted on 25 January 2024
Absolutely amazingly efficient department. Referred by GP for walk in appointment, and went to Worthing Hospital just after 9am this morning. Booked in immediately by very pleasant Reception staff, barely had time to sit down before being called. Finished and back to car park all within 15 minutes! All staff very efficient, friendly and professional, thank you all very much

Review titled 111 Fail - No record of 3 year olds appointment
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Lara Baker - Posted on 01 January 2024
111 gave time and location for an urgent treatment centre appointment (3.5 hours on) for my 3 year old daughter. On arrival to the urgent treatment centre they had no record of her and we got sent to a&e. She has been in so much pain over past couple of hours, we've been coaching her through saying it's going to be okay etc. Now has to wait in A&E for an additional time period. What is the point in 111? Shocked that a simple booking task wasn't completed, especially when regarding a small child.

Review titled Unfortunately poor communication
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Sarah Scott - Posted on 04 December 2023
Thursday waiting for surgery which taking questions, was informed my surgery would not be going ahead, due the hospital error. Having the wrong information about what surgery I was having. The doctor informed me he would call me that day and I heard nothing. Have heard nothing every since leaving me to chase this up on my own. Leaves me feeling very frustrated and fearful with my confidence in their ability.
