The nurses and doctors/surgeons were very helpful and professional in all they did.
When I left they were very apologetic on length of time I had had to be there for
The nurse was excellent who saw us- very thorough and very caring.
Everyone has been amazing.
Amazing staff who were all so friendly, supportive and locked after our son so well in his first couple of weeks. We are very grateful and would never be able to thank you enough.
I got seen quickly and the doctor provided me with an effective pain relief plan. All staff were caring and professional.
I was treated with the upmost care and compassion from Mr. Mehr and his team (Rosie, Selina and Pam) - they really did put me at ease and I had everything explained very carefully to me - I am very grateful to them all
All good given volume of patients
Excellent
I waited two and a half hours to be seen, I was offered a cup of tea. The waiting area was functional.
The Warwick nurses who looked after me when I was taken in by ambulance at 9am were very good, professional and arranged me to see a doctor quite quickly. It was thought that I might have an infection, as I had a DIEP breast reconstruction 2 weeks previous at UHCW. To ensure my wounds were healing and not causing an infection I had to go to UHCW to see the plastics team to check.
I was transferred to UHCW by ambulance and the A&E can only be described as appalling. No beds. I had to sit in a chair for a couple of hours and after major surgery this was very difficult. The plastics team were very professional when I saw them and they were equally appauled at how I had been treated. They were happy that my wounds were fine and that this was not the source of my infection. They explained that I would need to go back to Warwick as there were no beds at UHCW. A&E told me that they'd be a 12 hour wait for an ambulance, so my friend had to drive me.
This time I was a walk-in to Warwick A&E and my experience was awful. Long wait, about 4 hours, to be seen and then I was left about another hour in a cubicle on my own. I was eventually seen at 10pm and the doctor felt I should be admitted to a ward due to an internal infection. I was eventually transferred around 11.30pm. At no point was I offered fluid or anything to eat, from 9am until 11.30pm.
