New Cross Hospital

I was admitted into the Appleby Clinic by Mr Williams for a complicated medical Condition. The staff were very pleasant and friendly. The anathetist gave me something to relax me they said small scratch I’m used to having Ivs I always bite my lip but it wasn’t as bad as normal.

My father is in Ward A8 at the moment and since his arrival the staff have been fantastic, both nursing staff and Doctors keeping us well informed of his treatment. All very friendly and caring My father says that the night staff are not so friendly

on arriving to a&e and telling them i had a problem with a colostomy twice and the triage nurse calling me in to ask why i was there to tell her about the problems the lady o the desk had not told her about my colostomy but something different: to be seen by a doctor who did not know what irrigation was and treated me as if i had a normal bowel i wont put you through the detail 2nd time going less than a week apart i was told i was constipated and to see my gp for a prescription after 4 hours there and a complete run round ended up back there in the evening with out of hours gp to admit me to surgical ward so we thought i was given a questionaire went through a series of tests to be told they had looked at my xray i was constipated and gave me a prescription signed by a colerectal surgeon who didnt see me despite not being able to keep food down hot and cold sweats again i was turned away im fighting with a secretary to give me an appt and because i have complained about her she states now its going to delay me getting an appt also suggested i try another hospital that does not use ccg funding i have not had a letter to say i havent got the funding for my surgery and all im doing is going round in circles maybe i do need another hospital you have treated me appalling despite the patient charter to right to care and treatment

Great Hospital with amazing staff.

I attended a27 outpatient and was seen by miss,r s o up s by who was investigating my piles which was like aplomb she discussed three options and I decide to go for the easiest and safest which was to have my piles banded much to my delight she,said I will do it now,and within a few minutes without any pain job done,I was delighted and thanked her and the nurse for looking after me
