Review titled Excellent service and team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by James F - Posted on 11 August 2023
I was incredibly pleased with the care I received at Withington Hospital. After sustaining an injury at work, the plastics team were able to see me the next morning and I had my surgery the same afternoon. My surgeon was very professional and out me at ease. He performed the procedure with care and skill. The after care was excellent; I was seen once a week for the following three weeks to make sure I was getting on okay. My appointments were always bang on schedule. The medical team were extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Everyone involved in my care here was absolute pleasure to deal with.

Review titled Fantastic Team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Pamela Gaffney - Posted on 29 July 2023
I visited Withington Hospital for an MRI scan last week and I have to thank the wonderful team of NHS Radiographers. From my arrival and throughout they were so friendly and so helpful, taking the time to explain everything. They all made this experience for me less stressful and less anxious. I think they deserve a big thank you for being a fantastic team and for looking after me on the day.

Review titled Great friendly staff made me relaxed
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by edward william cope - Posted on 14 April 2023
I went for urology assessment 14/4/2023 in that department. The nurse doing the assessment could not have been nice no embarrassment she made it a matter of fact procedure. Not a very pleasant experience for an old man but she went out of her way to make it easy. This is the gold standard for the NHS all the staff were great. I'm only sorry I can only give them 10 out of 10.

Review titled Staff are amazing
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 April 2023
Our appointment was cancelled a few times and rearranged but once our appointment was confirmed, we went and the clinic wasn’t on. The lady on reception was extremely apologetic and very helpful. When we eventually got an appointment and went to it, the staff were fantastic. Every interaction with us was friendly and fun. Even when there was a more serious incident happening somewhere else, they didn’t let it affect the way they were with us. They clearly had a lot to do but they all had smiles on their faces. My son was happy chatting to the doctor, nurses and security guard, they were all very friendly with him.

Review titled Speedy friendly service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gerald Michael Addison - Posted on 10 January 2023
In times of great difficulty for the NHS I approached with some trepidation my appointments for investigations of possible cancer. This involved a CT scan and a cystoscopy. My personal knowledge made the prospect of the latter particularly daunting. Both appointments were on time, the staff highly professional and considerate giving appropriate information and support where required. I even survived the cystoscopy with not too much trauma Results were extremely timely, exceeding my expectations, and the whole experience starting with the GP appointment to the final letter was a credit to the NHS. And as a real plus parking at Withington Community Hospital was a joy compared to elsewhere in Manchester hospitals.
