I have found all the departments I have visited at Addenbrookes hospital over the last year to be staffed by caring, kind, dedicated professional people who are always polite and listen to my questions and concerns.
I have been in the oral surgery clinic, the CT scan department, the MRI scan department, the endocrinology department and as an outpatient for my cancer surgery and the care and kindness was the same everywhere. I saw many of the staff working very hard; some even manning their workstations stood in a corridor but I can honestly say that in my opinion, every person that dealt with me is a both a credit to Addenbrookes hospital and the NHS and for that you have my praise and my thanks..

Brilliant hospital
The staff were understanding ,caring , sensitive helpful and very professional.
How lucky i felt to be receiving treatment in this hospital .
Everywhere we went it felt the same -staff were kind and pleased to be able to help , even when we got lost looking for various clinics ! On more than one occasion we were personally escorted to make sure we didn't lose our way .
Thankyou NHS !!
The only downside of Addenbrookes Hospital is the expensive car parking.
All staff are welcoming and reassuring in their work in such a busy environment.
I am seen under multiple specialities at this hospital and they are all brilliant. Never a communication problem never, never a diagnosis issue.
I have been on waiting list for 2 years for lower back surgery only to be told the are told to do only minor surgery and emergency now my pain in both legs is getting worse and my mobility is now limited, and the hospital saying they care about their patients while they are killing them with pain physically and mentally I don’t blame the doctors but those who give them instructions most people with my condition are now in wheelchairs because they are refused to treated.
Treatment and care outstanding. Discharge process was appalling. I was pushed into a discharge ward at 2am with no info. Morning saw tables and chairs added to turn it into a waiting room. Staff there subject to a lot of abuse but were outstanding. My own consultant couldnt even find me until 4pm
This needs to be sorted
I have been admitted to hospital previously with appendix problems. I felt that the whole process of sitting in a chair overnight until 5am (I have spinal stenosis) was extremely painful and frustrating, I explained this several times and nothing about the situation changed. I suffer quite badly with hospital anxiety and found that this was disregarded by the majority of staff that dealt with me. The wards were dirty, the chair next to my bed had human waste products of some type on it. The staff were mainly downtrodden and uninterested. There is no person centered care at this hospital. My father has been admitted 3 times in the last year to A&E and has spent overnight waiting to be transferred to wards. On each if the three wards my father was on there were three super bugs. My father and the whole family caught COVID from the hospital too. I used one of the public toilets and witnessed a member of staff come straight out of the toilet and exit without washing their hands. I find the hospital to be dirty in general.
