Review of Doncaster Urgent Treatment Centre
7th January 2023


I waited 12 hours for a call back from 111 and was given an appointment for 22.15. On arrival, the place was totally overwhelmed. We were told there were 350 people in front of us to be triaged. There was very inadequate space, no seating available. Children and adults being sick and clearly unwell. We decided it was unsafe for us to stay and I would likely be more sick if I did. The two gentleman on reception were clearly upset by the situation and were very apologetic- I felt very sorry for them faced with an impossible set of circumstances.

Suggested improvements
The system is broken. How can 350 people be referred to the same service at the same time?

When I finally got to see a dr he was thorough, kind & very helpful. I’m an asthma sufferer so was concerned about my breathing & have a history of bad chest infections.

I called Devonshire Hoysr at 3.30 pm on Christmas Eve & was told I would get a call back from a dr. I wsutrd & was finally phoned back at 9.20pm on Christmas Day, absolutely disgusting having to wait over 24 hours for a callback, extremely worrying time when you can’t breathe!!

I do not have any of the long standing issue

Suggested improvements
I wish more professionals are employed so as to reduce the waiting time. The waiting time is too long and tiring

I was visiting friends for new years and was 4 hours away from home when I needed medical intervention. I went to Doncaster royal infirmary and it was very busy but within a hour I was in and out with a prescription. The doctor was thorough, kind and understanding and provided me with follow up instructions. The lady at reception was also welcoming and kind and helped me find where I could get my prescription with it being New Year’s Day.

Suggested improvements
Nothing, honestly found the whole experience great.
