West Suffolk Hospital

Visited hospital yesterday parked in Hardwick Heath car park at 1.45pm went to X-ray dept as a walk in and waited for about 5 mins. Saw young radiologist who was very professional, friendly, and efficient. I left there 10 mins later and went to path lab for blood test again as a walk in . I was seen and dealt with in about 5 minutes. Staff there again very friendly and efficient .On the way out I went via Audiology to get some hearing aid batteries. Staff there again very friendly. I was back at car car park in about 45 minutes in total having visited 3 departments. Wow what service we'll dond WSH.

I took my father to the West Suffolk Hospital A&E department with a possible stroke. Within 8 minutes of arrival in the department he had been assessed by the stroke team, and within 20 minutes was on his way for a CT scan. On confirmation of the stroke he was transferred to G8. Yes, we had to wait a while to actually get moved to the ward but it’s not the staff’s fault so it was no point in complaining about it. He remained on the ward for 2 days prior to being discharged. From start to finish I couldn’t fault any member of staff we came into contact with. They were polite, professional and thorough in their caregiving. Rather than staff being rude, it was amazing at how tolerant the staff were. Some patients and visitors were so disrespectful of the staff it was embarrassing to watch. Well done WSH, keep up the good work

Last August I was admitted to th wsh , After a accident at home , straight into A&E , Then ITU for one day , had a operation on my arm , Then spent a week on F7 , could not fault the care I received , everyone was excellent , From doctors , Nurses to care assistants ......Fantastic They are all over worked , But just get on with it .
