From diagnosis to being free from cancer I am so happy with the care I received at Watford general Hospital. I can't fault them at all. Pre care, after care, perfect.

My husband came to A and E on Wednesday morning following a fall at home. He was seen very quickly, all the staff were so caring and kind. A lovely doctor called Anthony looked after him and had him checked over thoroughly as he had previously been admitted in April after a fall and was sent to St. Marys in Paddington for brain surgery. A pretty young nurse called Sam was so kind, he was in Major ward bed 14 by now, we were offered tea/coffee and sandwiches and before we went home a trolley came round with vegetable soup. So very grateful for all the attention and kindness he had, been singing your praises ever since.

Great care ,long waiting time but very happy with support and medical care. I had a great nurses and wonderful surgeon who explained my symptoms and my issues. Thank you Watford General Hospital to navigate and pinpoint my health issues, Now I'm going through the right way of different treatments and surgery. I wish the chair would be a bit more comfortable, due to long waiting time you get very stiff sitting down :/

Hi, I was admitted to the hospital on the evening of 8th July 2025, and I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the care I received. The entire team was amazing – so kind, supportive, and professional. I’m truly thankful to every member of staff who looked after me. They acted quickly when I became unwell and helped me recover in no time. The service was excellent, and the A&E department, in particular, was staffed with dedicated and compassionate individuals. May God bless them and their families for the incredible work they do every day. Kind regards Neha Mittal

I was in Flaunden ward and the majority of nurses were attentive and very friendly, helping me to the bathroom and to put the surgical stockings on. A big THANK YOU to all those who were so kind, had time to chat, and made me as comfortable as possible. I was instructed about hospital style "home care", which enabled me to be discharged within 2 days and register my blood pressure, temperature etc during the day and send it in via mobile phone app. This worked extremely well and having a Dr and nurse to talk to each day was reassuring. The only reason I would mark down to 4 stars in some aspects is that, I found the Nurse station empty at night. (But presumed had I buzzed for help, someone would have come along.) Whist being wheeled out of the ward to the operation, we were held up slightly as staff were asked to find my notes. I was shown how to administer and inject into the top of my leg, which I continued to do at home. However, I was informed later that week, these injections should be in the stomach. But maybe both ways are OK. And after some type of wash/liquid was injected into my hand, this was very painful and stung but my comments seemed to be ignored. Within minutes my wrist and hand had swollen up and when I queried this with a nurse, It seems that the needle had missed my vein and the liquid inserted under the skin. I was however instructed to keep my arm raised to rectify and eventually the swelling went down.

Husband went to an appointment at the hearing clinic this afternoon as he was having problems with his hearing aids. One wouldn't stay in after they had put new tubes in recently and he lost it. The lady at the end of the phone said he would have to pay £65.00 and said you didn't tell us you were having problems. His answer I am telling you now. I need an appointment please. They couldn't have been more helpful. Replaced the tubes and the adapter and retuned them. Also gave him some batteries. All done quickly and efficiently by a trainee under supervision. Well done.( he did have a spare one but it was for the wrong ear so they used that!)

A quick visit to emergency departments last night for my self and my daughter too. Both for different issues. I also had to bring my 2 year old son with me due to no child care or family support but this wasn't a problem for all 3 of us to be there at all, where some hospitals I wouldn't be allowed. I was in lots of pain and so was my daughter. We were treated so so well and everyone was lovely to us. The paediatric team saw , dealt with and discharged my daughter very quick. The doctor dealing with my Crohn's disease and Trigeminal neuralgia was especially time giving, extremely thorough , Selfless and kind. I think her name was Jade but I may be wrong! Thankyou to her , I am now more knowledgeable too. Thankyou to the the xray lady who tried so hard and managed to get my autistic daughter to lay down and have her leg touched and xrayed as well as carrying my very heavy screaming toddler out of the room whilst taking the xray. This wouldn't have been possible without you thankyou. Can't rate this urgent care centre and A&E departments enough! Won't be going back to my regular hospital !
