Review titled A&E saved my husbands life!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by K J Tomlinson - Posted on 21 February 2024
Took hubby to A&E with a headache that just wasn't normal for him .... expecting to be sent packing as his only symptom was this unusual headache. Seen immediately and it was a ruptured brain aneurysm. They started him on medication and within 4 hours he was transferred to Nottingham. The staff in A&E looked after him superbly but also looked after me as I was in total shock. Thank you all !!!

Review titled I would never go to Burton Hospital ever again
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 July 2023
Went to A&E with a letter from my doctor to be seen promptly but I was still made to wait 6 hours. The system is no good. They don’t listen to you. Staff clearly don’t communicate with each other. I was asked the same questions repeatedly. Also patient confidentiality they no nothing of. I was asked personal offensive questions in front of my spouse. It’s just wrong. Nobody was proactive on helping to diagnose my problem. I was sent to the waiting room various times and was there until early hours. I have zero confidence in this hospital. It’s really quite worrying the low level of service they provide and something needs to be done about it. All I can say is Good Hope was outstanding and absolutely put Burton to shame.

Review titled Positive experience may it continue
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lisa Evans - Posted on 25 June 2023
Having arrived through A&E then admitted to ward 14 then onto ward 30 my experience was extremely positive, the care from the nurses and doctors was in my experience the best I’ve received having had my 4th hospital admission this year I had some issues previously but felt that this time I was really looked after so well always on top of my pain relief and the medications I needed,from surgery procedure to discharge. Please send me gratitude to all the staff within this department and wards they all did an amazing job when the department was very overwhelmed.

Review titled disgusted and appalled
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 21 April 2023
Doctor treated me with no respect, spoke to me like I was an imbecile and too old to comprehend what he was telling me.Did not read the notes the nurse had prepared and then accused me of not telling him information (which was in the notes). Wrote a list of medications on a tissue- is the NHS so short of money it cannot afford a sheet of paper!! On a positive note, the nurse who did the initial interview/tests was extremely good, very professional and pleasant. Would give her 10/10

Review titled Ward 15 amazing care and support given to my dad
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sarah Shuttleworth - Posted on 12 April 2023
My dad had to stay in longer than expected after a surgical treatment. The staff were brilliant, rang us with updates and looked after him so well. Always friendly and had time to talk, even though it was a busy ward. The human touch was definitely there.

Review titled Efficient
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Colin - Posted on 14 April 2023
I attended A&E after fracturing 3 bones in my foot. The time from arriving at A&E to leaving was quick in my opinion. The staff were all courteous, helpful and showed empathy. I was given clear diagnosis, treatment, and follow up instructions. When I left the A&E I felt assured I would soon make a full recovery under the care and guidance of the hospital’s care. Many thanks.
