Superb hospital. We didn't know it but my husband was dying invisibly when we went to A&E for a simple blood test for anaemia (local GPs all too full to take a temp registration). We were whisked in STAT, assessed, carefully watched, progressed to an assessment ward. Had big blood transfusion. Given an amazing luxury room. Everything at every step was carefully explained. When I gave my own research I'd looked up it was gratefully received and added to the picture building (no professional snob I was accepted as a useful part of the team). Everyone is endlessly kind at every level, endlessly hardworking. It looks like he's going to make it but ... whatever THANK YOU to our wonderful NHS in Nye Bevan's heartland.

Thank you to all the staff on the resuscitation ward, nurses and doctors alike. Ambulance crew took my sister Pauline in yesterday morning (they were also amazing) straight into resus with her breathing, she was in a terrible state, could hardly breathe, the doctors and nurses on the ward couldn't do enough, they worked so hard and acted so quickly to help her, she was eventually taken up to ICU, but if it wasn't for the actions, quick thinking and kindness of the resus team I dread to think what could have happened, I just want to say Thank you again to them all, they are amazing.

Had had our second baby here, staff couldn't have been more helpful. And midwife was amazing.

Yes parking can we a pain at times but there is a massive overflow car park over the road. So drop off and walk up :)

Car park back open now but still limited parking spaces. Signposts around hospital can be misleading. If you got an appointment, leave in plenty of time for it. Main outpatients had a cornered off area for kids to play which was good. There's a Costa coffee there with a cash machine which is a bonus.

Only giving 1 star as it's impossible to give 0.

I was in A&E in tremendous pain due to kidney stones. Staff didn't give a shit. Left me literally climbing the walls in pain and begging for some pain relief for 3 hours. When I did finally get some I was made to feel very uncomfortable about needing it.

Dirty, no, FILTHY assessment and treatment rooms. Even FILTHIER treatment by uncaring and unfriendly staff. All apart from two senior male nurses who were excellent.... if it wasn't for them I'm sure I would still be in agony now.

Zero organisation, zero co-operation and zero co-ordination.

Just two words STAY AWAY.

They said the waiting time was 5 hours - I was in and out within 2.5. Nice and clean compared to other hiospitals I've visited even if I only had a broken finger

Long story short. Came in with my partner's nan who had a fall causing a head injury and forearm arm.

Waited over 5 hours.

Reception staff are incredibly rude. Giving blunt and saracastic replies to injured & vulnerable people.

Extremely disappointed.

I can't fault our visit this morning. Booked in and saw triage nurse quickly in A & E. We waited no more than 30 minutes and went in for treatment and a referral to eye clinic. Clean and staff very helpful. Love the new build. Just a shame the smokers don't put there rubbish in a bin, but thats probably against their human rights!
