I can’t be more thankful of the staff within both the A&E department and the paramedics at Worthing Hospital, you truly are incredible! You were so caring and comforting with me and went above and beyond to ensure I was okay. I am forever grateful for all you do, keep being amazing! 🤍

Rated 5 stars out of 5

I was really worried about a scan and the Consultant and isw on 8.8.23 at Worthing radiology/ scans were fantastic: so understanding, professional and advised on what was best for me with such kindness and listened carefully. Excellent professionals

Review titled The kindest, calmest and most effective help in ages
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 July 2023
I was unfortunate enough to need A&E at the weekend when my GP was unable to see me in the week. I was transferred from A&E to UTC and was apprehensive at first. So much seems to have changed since I last needed to visit. 111 calls can now book you in to A&E, iPads to book in on the day and I’d never heard of UTC. The person I saw there was amazing, I’d seen her coming in and out of the waiting room, providing booking letters and reassurance in between seeing patients. Couldn’t have been more pleased with my care. How these superstars manage with overstretched budgets, rising visitor numbers and limited equipment I’ll never know. Big thanks from me.

Review titled Great experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Barbara D. Graysmark - Posted on 14 July 2023
I have had several endoscopes but yesterday was the best. All the staff were friendly, welcoming and explained things every step of the way, making me feel more at ease. Although the procedure is never pleasant but this team of ladies and one male nurse made it a much better experience.

Review titled Really positive experience
by corridorhe93 - Posted on 20 July 2023
I was absolutely terrified to have my relatively minor procedure under general anaesthetic but also due to ongoing news reports about the NHS. My experience was incredibly positive- absolutely everyone I encountered at my pre-op assessment, Chanctonbury Ward and the surgical team were just lovely. Calm, friendly, patient, knowledgeable and reassuring. I really hope I don't ever have to go back but, if I do, I know I'm in safe hands. Thank you very much. I wish you were all funded better.

Review titled A n e
Rated 2 stars out of 5

Very condescending, was in excruciating pain rolling round, asked for help but was ignoring and little bit of medical gas lighting. Was very unhappy with care provided as I am chronically disabled aswell. And not taken into account any of my wishes

Review titled Endoscopy procedure
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mary P - Posted on 31 July 2023
Thank you to all the staff in the endoscopy unit for the excellent care and consideration with exemplary professionalism and efficiency. Every step of the procedure was explained to me in a very coherent way. I am eternally grateful for our National Health Service; it is a shame it has become such a political football. Again, thank you.

Review titled End of life care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lauren Yates - Posted on 17 August 2023
I want to give a huge thank you to the staff for looking after my grandma in her final few days from the Paramedics who were so patient with my grandma when she was scared of what was happening to the stroke department who kept us informed and made her last couple of days so comfortable. Everyone was so kind and explained everything so thoroughly even at midnight! Thank you again from the bottom of mine and my families hearts.

Review titled Reassuring experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Brenda Elliott - Posted on 15 July 2023
Attended outpatient appointment. Very welcoming receptionist. Called before my actual booked time. Examined and assured everything was okay but to refer back to my GP to be referred back if I had any worries or problems in future. Very efficient, friendly and reassuring consultation. Thank you Worthing Hospital.
