    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by David Bayley - Posted on 03 July 2024

    I had to use A&E recently for an injury to my hand. From booking in to treatment and after care the service was superb. Communication was clear and detailed. I always knew what to expect. The treatment was so thorough and I wish to thank everybody there.

  3. Review titled Amazing care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Roy Symmonds - Posted on 28 June 2024

    I attended A&E following a fall today. I was assessed within 5 minutes of arriving at the unit. Within 15 minutes I saw a Doctor. I was referred for blood tests and a CT scan both of which were done with the hour. I then saw another A&E doctor and had a further examination. Subsequently transferred to AEU for monitoring. Consultant assessed me and I was discharged after 6 hours. I am very grateful for the wonderful care. Thank you

  4. Review titled The best

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Helen - Posted on 21 June 2024

    I’d like to thank nuclear medicine, a little-known department which carries out essential work in administering radio isotopes to treat diseases and diagnose conditions. Their physicists are the best - kind, knowledgeable and professional. I can’t thank them enough for answering my spreadsheet of questions with patience and compassion. A zillion thanks - you made a huge difference while I was in hospital.

  5. Review titled Fantastic Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by 4C’s - Posted on 04 July 2024

    My wife and I recently had our new addition to the family born at Royal Surrey County Hospital. Throughout the entire journey, including at the Guildford Maternity Hub, we were treated with the highest level of service and respect. We were surrounded by the most warm hearted, kind and caring midwives and our experience exceeded our expectations. We are so thankful for these lovely people, and thank the NHS for their incredible staff. Truly phenomenal service delivery from incredible people.

    Dear patient, Thank you for providing feedback regarding your recent experience at the Royal Surrey. We have a newly opened same day emergency care unit which sees cases such as yours. Your feedback has highlighted that perhaps not all GPs are aware of its service provision. Therefore we will notify our Communications Team to ensure this information is shared again with our community colleagues. If you have any additional questions or wish for additional information regarding the above please contact our PALS team on Rsc-tr.pals@nhs.net. Thank you. Kind regards from Elaine Kavanagh, Matron for Accreditation and Patient Experience

  7. Review titled Haslemere Minor Injuries Unit

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Astrid - Posted on 01 July 2024

    Yesterday I attended this Minor Injuries Unit with an eye issue. I was most impressed with the lady at reception who was welcoming and caring as well as by the lady who examined my eye, explained findings and treatment going forward. I would recommend this Unit to anyone with minor injuries and wish there were more such units around the country so only the serious cases go to the larger hospitals' A&E departments. Big thank you to the staff who took care of me yesterday.

  9. Review titled Outstanding treatment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Dan Bailey - Posted on 12 June 2024

    I had an endoscopy yesterday afternoon. I could not have been more impressed with the quality and friendliness of the 9 or so staff who were involved in my time at the department, from reception to discharge. They were also reassuring, efficient and clear. The facilities were also a very high standard, clean, comfortable and well laid out. All in all, top drawer, and a credit to the hospital and the NHS.
