  1. Review titled Excellent, knowledge, help recommend 100 percent.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 25 April 2023

    Attended pain Management with the consultant, who was excellent in explaining, took time and patience with me. So very kind, supportive and in his guidance and advice I genuinely know he wants the best for me in terms of treatment. The whole department work together as an excellent team and the nursing staff care, and are efficient. I would recommend pain management clinic Preston. They are incredibly helpful and kind. Thank you for all your hard work, with me and my complex health problems.

  2. Review titled Shocking service

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Adam Gregory - Posted on 05 April 2023

    Would like to say how wonderful the service and the NHS is but sadly I can't. My ife has been referred after a private pid appointment to the NHS for a neoroligical injection as a priority case. I have tied calling but the number advertised on the hospital website doesn't work so I came into the hospital to the information desk that had no one manning it. What is going on!! Clearly customer service isn't a Preston hospital objective

  3. Review titled Great hospital

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Jedi - Posted on 15 March 2023

    I've had an amazing experience today. I had a suspected mid foot fracture- and i've been well taken care of. From the Ed reception to the A and E triage nurse , to the x-ray service and back to the Aand E urgent care and finally the orthotics practitioner who gave me a bootcast- everyone was amazing! - helpful and empathetic. My whole experience lasted about an hour. The NHS gets a lot of stick, but when things work , no matter how minor it seems, we should also highlight and give kudos. Thanks guys and God bless

  4. Review titled Superb

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 02 April 2023

    Unpromptu visit to A&E via the gp on Thurs for suspected stroke had me waiting for over 12 hours! Witnessing what the staff adhere to from some patients i must say is very distastful but staff all remained professional, calm and dealt with the matter. I really felt cared for in those 12 hours, yes it is a long time to sit and wait! But in context there are sicker patients who cannot be seen from the waiting room with more urgent needs! Moving to ward 21 the exceptional care continued, the staff all went above and beyond! The ward was run very well and any of my concerns were listened too. I have just had the most nervous few days of my life but was very much supported and reassured by highly qualified staff.

  5. Review titled Friendly and efficient

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Sarah - Posted on 28 March 2023

    I was recently admitted to Ward 3 as a day case for oral surgery. I had originally been admitted a week prior but unfortunately was sent home before my operation due to staff illness. My second surgery date was during the junior doctor strikes and many other surgeries were cancelled but luckily they were keen to not have to cancel on me again and the operation went ahead. Every member of staff was friendly and professional and I was seen quickly and efficiently by all the of the medical team prior to my surgery. Everything went well and I was discharged home within a few hours. Thank you to Ward 3!

  6. Review titled X-ray department was wonderful

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Claire Bennett - Posted on 29 March 2023

    Went for a specialised dental x-ray today and I arrived 15 minutes early, the radiographer and student radiographer saw me before my appointment time, were very efficient in doing the scan and I had a copy of it in my hand within 10 minutes of having it done. The student radiographer was confident and explained what to do simply, clearly the radiographer is doing some brilliant teaching.

  8. Review titled Fantastic care and support

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mr Tom Naylor - Posted on 08 February 2023

    I recently spent 5 days at ward 11 Preston Royal hospital. I wanted to thank all the fabulous staff for the wonderful care and support that they all gave me. Despite them all being under great pressure and some of them very young. I can't stress enough about the wonderful care and respect which I was shown. It isn't easy having an operation in any circumstances. However each member of staff greatest with a smile and a kind word. They bent over backwards to make me feel comfortable. I can't commend them,and thank them enough. They all deserve a medal. Some people will say that they are just doing their jobs. However they all went much further than this. I hope that perhaps you could let them all know how grateful myself and my family are to them. God bless them all. Kind regards Tom Naylor.

  9. Review titled Upsetting and devastating

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 07 February 2023

    After being urgently referred by my GP the referral appeared on my NHS app with no available appointments it requested I ring if I heard nothing by 2nd Feb. I rang today and the most unpleasant receptionist grunted name? Date of birth etc. when I told her I why I was ringing she says there are no appointments available and wouldn’t be until they build more clinics and employ more staff. I left the phone call heartbroken.

  10. Review titled Mobile MRI appointment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Ruth L - Posted on 03 February 2023

    I attended the mobile scanner yesterday and received amazing service from the two ladies who were scanning me. They sorted out a hiccup with the paperwork to ensure I received the correct type of scan with contrast after an admin error. They were attentive and understanding of the situation and made me feel at ease. Thank you for making this appointment stress free and going above and beyond!
