Review titled Excellent service and care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jean Apps - Posted on 24 August 2024
I attended the Women's Unit at CUH. The all-female team, from the person who answered my queries prior to the appointment (my letter was held up in the post) to the specialist doing the procedure, was friendly, reassuring and efficient.

Review titled Speedy response
Rated 5 stars out of 5

The quick response to see me about my health problem was amazing. Unfortunately it could not be dealt with on the first appointment yesterday, but this morning a new appointment was arranged for next week. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Review titled Great service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Naomi - Posted on 01 June 2024
I don’t usually leave reviews, but I had to go to a&e as I had difficulties with breathing. I was seen promptly and everyone I dealt with was kind, friendly and professional. The doctor who explained my results was lovely, and spent time explaining things to me. The only thing I’d say is that the toilets smelt and needed a clean.

Review titled Lead replaced in pacemaker
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Brian Chute - Posted on 20 June 2024
I was exremely pleased with the attention recieved in operating theatre and later by nursing staff in recovery. All the personnel could not have been more attentive at all times and the lunch provided was like being in a highly rated hotel. I would appreciate if the nursing staff could be made aware of my comments

Review titled Unhygienic
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anushka - Posted on 27 June 2024
I attended a scan this day with the sonographer. I asked for more tissue to wipe my abdomen after a scan. I went to take part of a new unused tissue from near the top of the bed. But the sonographer insisted that I took a part of the tissue where I was lying down on the scanning bed. They don't seem to know the purpose of putting a paper on the scanning bed. As I did not want to make a scene I left. Very unhygienic and very disappointed with the behaviour maybe due to lack of training or ignorance. They are in need of training.

Review titled Extremely helpful
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mrs hall - Posted on 03 May 2024
I went to Mayday today & was in search of my mother who seemed very distressed & confused when I spoke with her on her mobile, after a 30 second conversation the phone cut off. I raced to Mayday & went to the dept she visited the previous 2 days. They were so helpful & told me they sent her for x ray & bloods, & that she had left those departments. I didn’t find her (as she had left) but 10/10 for the 2 receptionists who helped.

Review titled 7 hour wait in maternity triage
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anushka - Posted on 21 May 2024
I went to maternity triage in Croydon University hospital on 20 May 2024. I was quickly taken in by the midwife around 5 pm. They did the initial checks and I was asked to stay in the waiting area to be seen by a doctor. I was finally seen by a doctor around 12.00 midnight after a 7 hour wait! That was also only because I informed them that I had to go home. The doctor and midwife who saw me were lovely. But they are clearly understaffed. When the doctors are in surgery there is no one to cover. There were a number of patients who were clearly in pain but waiting as they had no other option. I finally left the hospital around 12:40 am. I expected a 3 -4 hour wait as you usually wait for that long in A and E. However, it is disappointing that the trust does not use tax payers money to employ more doctors!

Review titled Outrageous behaviour
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Rosanna - Posted on 21 April 2024
Whilst my husband was being seen by the streaming nurse, I used an extra chair to sit as I am pregnant. Regardless of my situation another nurse came over and pulled the chair from under me, stating only the patient can sit. She was extremely rude and to add to this, this was extremely shocking behaviour from hospital staff
