I have recently been put to sleep for the first time for a Gyni procedure in Wrexham Maelor as a day patient.I have to say as a nervous patient the care and understanding I recieved was above and beyond what i expected. It was absolutely nothing to worry about. The Nursing staff on the Pasteur Ward and the operating theatre were all brilliant and I hope they get to see this review.I want to thank them for the job that they do and how lucky we are for their service.I would also like to say, brilliant steering of my bed by Dennis, on his second day as a porter

I recently received superb care at Wrexham Maelor Hospital (Jan 2024). I was admitted via A&E whose staff worked with great skill to stabilise my sepsis & DKA following a chest infection. I was transferred, & spent 3 days, on ITU whose staff looked after me with care, professionalism and dignity. I was then transferred to the Prince of Wales ward for 3 days where I received , and witnessed, great care delivered with patience and respect. I saw the full range of NHS staff during my stay and can honestly say that everyone of them was professional, kind and supportive. Thank you Wrexham Maelor and thank you to the NHS for wonderful care free at the point of delivery.

Cunliffe Ward has a lot of Diabetic and Dialysis patients. Yet the hospital food does NOT cater for either condition.
High in sugar, potassium, and phosphorus.
Beef Hotpot is not what it sound like. A tiny spoon of mince and a mountain of unhealthy potassium filled potatoes which are bad for Dialysis patients.
There are many other similar examples.
I lost a chance to go home because the hospital food spiked my potassium levels, I have Polycystic Kidney Disease and require Dialysis 3 times a week.
I also have diabetes, and my blood sugar spikes have never been so high as they are after eating the hospital food. As of today (05.12.2023) I shall make my own food arrangements at my own expense. Disgusted.

I had a colonoscopy today at Wrexham. Everyone in the unit was friendly, professional and made me feel safe and at ease. The lady conducting the procedure was lovely. Thank you.

My final comments

Arrived at 12.18 with my 15yo son, straight onto the children’s ward as letter from GP and they had agreed to see him . First set of observations were done straight away then It was 4 hours before anyone came back round. No offer of water or pain medication throughout the 8 hours we were here! Student asked questions, then an hour later a doctor asked the same questions and examined him, she said she needed to speak to a senior. She then came to us and said they were
Doing handover which would take 30/40 minutes and a different doctor would be round to see him. 18.20 I asked a passing nurse if there was any news on when he would be seen. She said oh, took a look in his file and walked away. Said absolutely nothing else. Where as I fully appreciate NHS and their staff are under
Immense pressure I witnessed several members of staff throughout the day having “Coffee breaks”. The nicest one was the HCA who offered my son some food! It was another 1.5 hour wait before a doctor came and at this point my
Son just wanted to go home for a hot bath and to his own bed, not
To mention some painkillers. I’m afraid
Our NHS is a complete loss

We attended A and E with my 9month grand daughter and her Mum on the 9/7/23 at 2am because the baby was persistently vomiting.
The problem was worrying as she had had a fall the day before.
The service we received was exemplary.
The Paediatric A and E staff nurse was so kind, caring and reassuring.
He accompanied us to the CT scan and helped us through the difficult and worrying next few hours.
There were only 2 doctors working to cover the whole busy A and E department.
The doctor gave us his time, he put us at ease and was so lovely with my grand daughter. Ahead took time to explain the concerns around the symptoms. He also consulted a senior Paediatric Registrar for his opinion and checked and reported back to us during the night.
We are so very grateful for the expert, professional and caring staff from the A and E Receptionist to the Nurse, Doctor and Radiographer who looked after us.
The doctor was Dr Issacs and the staff nurse’s name was John.
We cannot praise you enough for the way you helped us.

Came in at 1145. 3 hours to get triaged/seen. Lay in plaster room til 2000 hrs. Took up to SAU No beds.so sat in a chair for hours and hours. Had to chase nurses for water, a pillow and to have an iv. Which is why i was admitted. Its now half 3 in the morning and ive had no sleep. Thought you were supposed to get better in hospital. This is a disgusting way to treat patients. No respect and no dignity. Appalled at our NHS.
