Tameside General Hospital

Advised to attend Tameside General Hospital A&E by my GP which I did. I was later transferred to a treat and discharge unit. The level of service from entering the Hospital to being discharged was first class. The staff were brilliant which says it all in just a few words. The people of Tameside should be proud that we have medical care on our doorstep of this quality. Well done TGH.

Having undergone two hip replacement’s within three months I cannot fault the care I received nor the hospital as a whole. Excellent from start to finish!

Don't give birth here. Baby and I almost died, and was I was laughed at in ICU while they were stitching me up.

I had a knee cap joint replacement, performed by Mr Ellapparadja. On July 9th 2023. It's now, 4th of September, 8 weeks post op and I am feeling fantastic, throughout the whole proceedure, from start to finish. The surroundings,care by staff, total understanding from my consultant Mr Ellapparadja.and a excellent team especially anesthetics. I am no longer in any pain and I am free to go back to work and live my life. Can't thank them all, enough for the life change this has given me .

Refused colonoscopy on the grounds that due to work commitments I could not attend hospital during the week to pick up medication. I was told that the medication could not be posted to me in case my (non-existent) children might pick it up (I have no children). When I offered to collect the medication on another day at any local NHS establishment, this was refused with no reason given. Instead of help and support, I was met with the threat of referral back to my GP, delaying cancer checks. Everything that is wrong with the NHS, in a nutshell. It's a shame. In the past I *have* had much better experiences and I know the hospital has some great consultants. Management lets it down.

Better care for mental health

my only suggestion would be the availability of ice packs on the orthopedic ward.

The team on DSEU were superb. The nurses ensured my pain relief was regular and appropriate and the HCAs were happy and kind. Food was deicious. Nothing was too much trouble for everyone. The service was better than private hospital. I felt my care was personalised professional and perfect. Tameside has improved dramatically since my last experience in 2010. Well done. A 1st class experience

Excellent care throughout my stay in hospital, also as an outpatient visiting.

I HAD A RIGHT FULL KNEE REPLACEMENT, THE KNEE IS A TOP JOB AND VERY COMFY IN 6 WEEKS, I HAD A FEW COMPLICATIONS AFTER WARDS PASSING WATER AND RETURNED TO HOSPITAL WHERE I WAS TREATED REALLY WELL,
