I had superb care in the Worthing Endoscopy Unit at Worthing Hospital today. All the staff, nurses and doctor were caring and professional throughout. I had been anxious beforehand but I need not have been, I was reassured and very well looked after. Thank you all.

Review titled Excellent and supportive Diabetes Specialist Nursing Team
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Bruce - Posted on 29 March 2023
In response to my email enquiry, I received a call from one of the nurses. We went through the issues I was having with my sensor and the nurse explained the reason the issues had arisen and how to address them. Although I've been a diabetic for over 40 years and have a good but layman's understanding of the condition, the nurse explained in a manner that I understood and not using medical gobbledygook. The team team are very supportive and always available for advice and it's much appreciated - many thanks to all concerned.

Review titled My 96 year old Father
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Susan Brown - Posted on 12 March 2023
Admitted for breathing difficulties seen by a triage nurse, had an X Ray and seen a doctor with prescription and out all within 3 hours. I cannot say enough how friendly kind and professional all the staff were. The NHS at its best.

Review titled Wonderful
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lisa-Marie - Posted on 30 June 2023
After making my way to the hospital on a rainy morning for major surgery in a haze of fear and apprehension, I was so incredibly grateful to have time take talk through the surgery with both the surgeon (who had been the consultant prior, for which I will leave a separate review under gynaecology) and the anaesthetist. Given that this was the first encounter with the anaesthetist I was really surprised at how quickly I felt at ease and trusting that I was going to be in good hands. For someone to make such a positive impact in such a short space of time is really such a testament to the skill and expertise they bring to the role and the interpersonal skills which are so crucial for patients at such times to make things just a little less frightening. Following the surgery, I didn’t feel any adverse affects form the anaesthesia and I feel this is further testament to the dedication and skill of the anaesthetics team looking after me during surgery - I really cannot thank them enough. The surgeon also did a fantastic job but will review separately, as there is so much to say about them and the exemplary treatment.

Review titled Great experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mateusz Praisner - Posted on 30 March 2023
Just wanted to thank to the team at Endoscopy ward. Had a colonoscopy this morning and everything went smoothly, it was well organised and especially a Polish lady was very supportive, unfortunately I didn't catch her name. She has helped me a lot as the experience was quite challenging at times... Thank you so much.

Review titled Great Hospital
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sally A Wright - Posted on 20 March 2023
What a gem you have in this hospital. My mother had day surgery yesterday Sunday and the time and care shown by all members of the team could not have been better. Spotless on Chanctonbury Ward, staff nurses so kind, careful evaluation by consultant and anesthetist and giving great consideration to an anxious patient. Overnight stay resulted in her not really wanting to leave! .. Great experience, clean, Great food and such an effort made by everybody and successful operation that will give her a new lease of life. Thank you.

Review titled Excellent care at Worthing Hospital
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barry Raynsford - Posted on 27 February 2023
I received excellent care at the Endoscopy Unit on my recent visit. The appointment was on time and I was looked after in a caring,friendly and professional way by the whole team. The procedure was painless and explained to me throughout. I received the same treatment whilst in the recovery ward. My experience on this occasion mirrors an earlier visit I made to this department in June 2022 for a similar procedure. I have been very impressed by the service provided by the Endoscopy Unit, and feel very fortunate to have this facility at Worthing Hospital. Many thanks.

Review titled Fantastic care
Rated 5 stars out of 5

My Dad was taken into hospital 4 weeks ago. He has Alzheimer's and Dementia. He was diagnosed with a fracture of the spine. I am so grateful for the care and support he has been given. We are waiting for a care package. All of the Team in Beckett ward are just superb. The young doctors have been so knowledgeable of Dad's illness. They are superb. Thank you everyone for all you are doing for my Dad, and special mention to the lovely lady who always brings me a cup of tea.
