Friendly and professional staff. I felt comfortable and was assessed, x rayed and treated quickly and efficiently. I am not someone who has ever really left feedback but I really thought that on this occasion I should. Thank you.

Review titled Disgusting and rude staff
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 September 2023
The receptionist booked me in and told me it’s was at least a 5.5 hour wait basically did I need to be there when I went into triage I was told i probably won’t get another X-ray baring in mind my swelling and bruising is 10x worse then it was before I was seen a week ago i couldn’t move my hand properly and had pins and needles but apparently that’s normal and the arm had been knocked again after my fall would not recommend this place!

Review titled Fantastic Service and Great Staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Paul Burton - Posted on 31 May 2023
I visited yesterday at 0800 and I was extremely impressed with the whole experience. There were abot 5 people waiting outside before they opened and we were all quickly registered by the reception staff once it opened. Within 5 mins I was seen for triage and 10 min later by a nurse practitioner who also consulted another nurse. I was treated throughout very proffesionally by some extremely helpful staff, given medication and a call back appointment. I can't recommend the facility and staff highly enough. Thank you.

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Rita Palmer - Posted on 12 April 2023
An amazing security man greeted me as I waited for my husband to park the car. I was wobbly on my crutches!He said he would fetch a wheelchair for me for which I was more than grateful. In reception I was greeted by friendly face who said you rang earlier I've been expecting you. That made me feel very welcome . Following this I was seen by an HCA,who was most thorough in her assessment ,treatment and advice . She explained what to expect at fracture clinic. I was made to feel I mattered and individual,not just a number passing through.

It is so nice when the staff are praised and I am sure they will all say “we were only doing our jobs.” Thank you again and we all hope that you are making a speedy recovery.

Review titled Thank heaven for The Cumberland.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Christine Treharne - Posted on 23 April 2023
Ver positive experience at The Cumberland this morning. I arrived at 8.40a.m., with a very painful foot. I was treated courteously and didn't wait long before seeing the triage nurse who took my observations and an account of my reasons for my visiting the centre. After another short wait, I was seen and examined by another practitioner. She gave me a thorough examination and was very helpful and reassuring. I was out by 9.45a.m. This is a great resource for Plymouth and long may it continue! (Only negative comment -the lighting in the Ladies makes you look like death warmed up!!)

Thank you Christine for you lovely comment. The team pride themselves on giving wonderful care, and feedback such as yours will be greatly appreciated. I will pass on your comments to the relevant staff who treated you. With regards to the lighting in the public toilets, unfortunately this is deemed necessary for a particular reason. Myself and the team wish you well and hope that you have a speedy recovery from your injury. Kind regards Nigel Booth Matron, Cumberland UTC

I have serve health anxiety, and this morning I needed a ultrasound&internal scan. The two lady’s that scanned me was amazing, treated me with Fantastic dignity, reassured me, I nearly cancelled my appointment leading up to today, because of my anxiety but I am so glad I didn’t. If the management is reading this please send my thanks to the two lady’s I was the first patient to be scanned today at 8.30 on the 16/03/2023. You both was truly amazing!

Review titled Brilliant service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Brian Libby - Posted on 19 December 2022
Having had a week of discomfort from a fall on ice I felt it best I get checked for anything nasty. The service and kindness of the staff I met was exceptional, not least with their explanations. They are a credit to the NHS.

Review titled Wonderful caring staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Was unable to even get my GP to answer the phone. Econsult is turned off daily so quick you cannot submit anything. After using 111 was advised to go to Derriford, I didn't feel it was worthy of an A&E visit so opted for Cumberland center at 8am when they opened. From the lady on reception, to the 2 ladies on triage and the wonderful nurse who saw me I could not be more grateful. Kind, caring, to thorough and listened to me. Only took 90 mins start to finish. Full diagnosis and treatment plan. Nurses are the backbone of the NHS! GP's could learn from you guys. thankyou so much. You are appreciated xx

Review titled Terrible cautery ENT department
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Federica Buriani - Posted on 26 November 2022
I have been treated with silver nitrate in one of my nostrils and the doctor did it so badly that also the skin between the nostril and the upper lip is now burned (black). It is so ugly and embarrassing! I spoke with a dermatologist and probably it will stay like that for 10 days or so... I am so disappointed.

I am so sorry to hear about your experience. Having checked with the ENT department here at Derriford Hospital (UHP), Andrea Anstey, ENT & Audiology Support Manager explained that you were not seen as a UPHNT patient and therefore would have been treated by DRSS or Livewell. UHP sends a consultant to the Cumberland Centre one morning a fortnight to see booked patients but you have not ever been booked into this clinic with us. I can only suggest you check with the Livewell team and let them know about your concerns. They can be contacted by phone on 01752 268011 or by email at customerservicespch@nhs.net Thank you Alison Stanton Patient Services
