Awful experience. Unhelpful. I'm afraid there is nothing positive I can say. Constructive suggestions - try listening to what the patient actually says, try being a bit more empathetic.

Had a first week in the psychology dept both hydro and gym treat with respect and dignity only praise for the staff.
As a doctor myself, qualifying in 1991, I have worked in and visited many hospitals. My experience here is absolutely unique. There is a wonderfully pervasive culture of "patient first". This is evident from the moment one enters the Hospital ( friendly, helpful Volunteers), to the Porters who take time to introduce themselves and spend time chatting and putting one at ease. The ward staff ( ward 3) are exceptional. I cannot praise them enough. Again, totally patient centred. Everyone makes eye contact with a smile and genuine empathy. Little things as a frightened patient which make big differences: the house keeping staff topping up water glasses before taking the jug to replenish, and then ensuring everything is in easy reach.
Thank you.
Absolutely wonderful
The care was excellent, I was treated quickly, the procedure was explained well before, during & after. All the staff were friendly and took time to explain & reassure patients.
The only difficulty was the lack of parking & space in the waiting room for relatives. My husband did not wait in waiting room but went elsewhere. He was then unable to park nearby when picking me up. It would seem that a lot of relatives were waiting in waiting area despite being told no one was supposed to stay.
The staff are very friendly and the night staff made me feel really at ease with everything and explained what they were doing.
Quicker service.
Staff were extremely helpful, informative and kept me updated on waiting times.
I was concerned re car parking and reassured this was OK.
Consultation with consultant was very clear, understanding and empathic.
Felt I was given time and explanations.
Doctor was nice and did what he could.
