Came in with severe chest pain. The nurse laughed at me and whispered quite loudly to other nurses ‘hahah he thinks he is having a heart attack’. I didn’t. She got extremely angry at me and said this is not a place for you. She tilted her head and said ‘are you going to see a GP then’. A healthcare assistant sent someone with severe chest pain away without any tests. I had myocarditis (heart inflammation). I could have died. As it took 3 weeks to see a GP it was too late. All the bio markers for cardiac problems had gone. I was called anxious and it has developed into dilated cardiomyopathy. A death sentence within 5-10 years. I’m 20. Completely preventable. York hospital is sick. The nurses gang up on you. The doctors do not care one single bit. You will wait 10 hours to be gaslighted in the most cruel way possible. Go to Leeds, Hull or Harrogate, their hospitals are a solid 9-10/10. York is a 0.

My son was involved in an RTA in Costa Rica, he has an horrific leg wound. This was treated by a wound clean every 2-3 days to keep infection at bay in Costa rica & he was due for a skin graft on awed 11/4. The day before the graft was to take place he was transferred to York. He was transferred by air ambulance to York hospital on 12/4 after the ins company liased with York hospital about his arrival. He arrived on 13/4 with York saying they were not aware of his arrival, had no knowledge of his injury and no information of his treatment. He was put on a ward & told he would have a clean out op today 16/4, then told the op would not take place. The Dr then visited to say he would "put his case forward for an op 17/4 but was not promising", as if getting an operation was some sort of talent audition. His wound has now not been cleaned for 7 days
Recent Steroid injection for hip treated with excellent care by doctor & nurse
For which l thank you
Staff and service were outstanding during this Covid Pandemic.
Very safe environment.
Highly recommended.
Thanks to all the staff.
I like the nurses and how well handled the hospital is
The care I have received has , in my, opinion been exemplary. The staff have always been polite and extremely professional, and always been happy to answer my questions. I was also aware of their empathy towards my personal and emotional well-being. I could not recommend the highly enough.
All the staff treated me with respect and very caring especially under these very difficult times
I was subjected to appalling treatment during my pregnancy and labour.
I have already been told and received an apology for some aspects but I am still trying to get answers to various things including the reasons for the medical treatment that I was subjected to.
Whilst some questions have been answered, many haven’t I have now received a letter from the chief exec basically closing me down and telling me to go to the ombudsman.
Don’t expect answers from York Hospital regarding treatment either before or afterwards.
Good, clean, very efficient, thorough, great staff.
Most of the medical staff in York Hospital were of good standard, but some of the attendants were abrupt and unhelpful. The bathroom was not very clean and the facilities are outdated and in need of upgrading.
I was very sick for days after my operation but this was not brought under control. I had practically nothing to eat for 6 days and felt extremely weak, shaky and vulnerable when I was discharged.
My surgeon (Mr Chitsabesan) and anaesthetist (Andrew) were both superb, however. Also, Andy Scott.
