Review titled Amazing Experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Fath Alloba - Posted on 30 July 2024
Today I had the pleasure of visiting the respiratory clinic at the Royal Liverpool Hospital, and I am compelled to share my exceptional experience. Under the care of respiratory consultant and Health Care Assistant, I received one of the best consultations I have ever had in my many years of hospital visits. From the moment I arrived, I was treated with the utmost professionalism and friendliness. The consultant expertise and compassionate approach ensured that I felt completely cared for. Her thoroughness and attentiveness made a significant difference, providing me with confidence and reassurance throughout the consultation. The health care assistant, was equally outstanding. Her warm demeanor and efficient assistance greatly contributed to the smooth and positive experience. Together, they exemplify the highest standards of patient care. I would like to express my deepest gratitude, respect, and appreciation to both of them ( I wish if I am allowed to mention their names) . Their dedication and kindness have truly made a lasting impression on me. I wish them all the very best in their careers and commend them for their outstanding service. Thank you once again for such a brilliant experience.

Review titled Day surgery with the breast unit team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Abi - Posted on 12 June 2024
I was under the care of the day case team and breast surgeons - I was treated with respect and kindness from start to finish, my surgical team and the nurses went above and beyond in terms of making me comfortable. At one point I had a panic attack and the team were very supportive. I also had a bad reaction to the anaesthetic, and the nursing team were really attentive and sorted me out with anti-sickness medicine and lots of care. Thank you so much.

Review titled Excellent
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Was booked in for minor surgery for June and was brought in last week. The consultant and nursing staff were amazing, to the point, professional and caring. The surgery went well and it is healing fantastically well. Just waiting on biopsy results now and it’s been made clear I will receive a letter in 6-8 weeks time. Couldn’t fault the service top class.

Review titled Read this please
Rated 5 stars out of 5

The building was opened in October 2022 and so is brand new. It is beautiful. I have been in a few hospitals on Merseyside including Arrow Park ( some staff were really good but place dirty food horrible. Very far away) This new Royal Liverpool is incredible and right on my doorstep. As for the staff, everyone I met there nurses, cleaners nursing assistants and doctors, multi disciplinary teams In fact everyone were kind,, ccompassionate, hard working people who were not judgmental and did their best for absolutely every patient. They clearly put patients first (I have been in hospitals where this is not the case, although that is rarely the nurses) And the food at the Royal Liverpool is really, really good!! This amazing hospital is the number 1 reason I do want to move as well as the fact I love Liverpool and (most of) the people who live here are really lovely. My mum had worked all around the world and she said that the nicest people she had ever met were scousers!. I think the Royal Liverpool Hospital is amazing and I hope it continues to be so. Thank you all xx

Review titled Impossible to reach them by phone
Rated 1 star out of 5

On 24th November at 4:15pm I had an appointment with a consultant at Broad Green Hospital. One of the things he told me to do before leaving the hospital that day was to go to the department of the hospital called the Appliance Section, where I could collect the prescription for a voucher that he had processed on the system. By the time I got to this Appliance Section on the other side of the hospital it was 4:40pm and they were closed for the day. I live quite a distance from the hospital and I am unable to go back there specially for this. I have tried to phone them to find out if there's any way to have it sent to me. Today alone between about 10am and 4:30pm I attempted their direct phone line 100 times, according to my call register. It was unsuccessful: either 'user busy' or 'call failed' every time. Even now, after hours (8:25pm), it is still doing the same thing. So when the staff are not on the phone (and I can't even imagine how they draw breath or get anything else done since the line is continually busy), the line is set up in such a way that it drops incoming calls. And if anyone doubts that I am trying the correct number, it is the line ending 6002. I rang the consultant's secretary to ask for help getting through, and she tried transferring me, but failed. She said that she could remember getting through to them last Friday, as if it was a landmark historical event. It's clearly more memorable when one gets through than when they don't get through. There is clearly a problem in this department in terms of how much time staff are having to spend on the phone. And if they need the phone all that much, why do they have only 1 dedicated line that they happen to be unreachable on when it comes to incoming calls? And before anyone suggests calling via the switchboard/call centre/general lines, that is another nightmare. The call handlers don't have a clue which department it is, so I got sent through to physiotherapy one time, then on another occasion to hip surgery. Every time I had to start over with the people receiving those calls, to explain which section I was trying to get through, only to have them tell me that my call had been misdirected, then I would have to hang up and start over by phoning the general line again and asking them to get it right this time. One of the call handlers actually told me that unless I was asking to be put through to a specific department's appointments line, they would just connect me to some consultant's secretary each time and hope for the best. Note also that I did leave my phone number for the Appliance Section with one of their colleagues in an adjoining office, on the Thursday evening when I missed them by about 10 minutes, and she kindly offered to pass it on. If they have called, they have used No Caller ID and left no voicemail, which is as good as not phoning if you work for a department which has a phone number that is impossible to get through to at any time of day or night.
