Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham

Bad, they caused my dad issues.

I've been under endoscopy for 6 weeks and I can't fault them.

I've been waiting for 2 years for my eye operation. I'm fed up of calling. It took 17 months just to have an appointment.

Good.

My experience with them was a mess. I went to them with severe pain in my lower pelvic area and they said because I had walked in there on my two legs I was fine. We had to argue with them the second time we went for a test and that was then we found out there was a problem with my ovaries and I had to have one removed.

I've been waiting for an op on my stomach. Twice now I've had the pre-op and then it's been cancelled. This latest pre-op is about to run out again too.

I got rushed in by ambulance. I was practically dead. They got me sorted to a degree.

I'm seen every 6 months and can't fault them. I can reach them over the phone. When we need information or advice they're really very good.

Had colonoscopy and still haven’t had results of biopsies taken ( 1 May) still awaiting for an appointment for colorectal surgery. I’m also waiting to hear from my prostate surgeon about lower abdomen weakness. I’m still waiting to hear from urology about having 6 monthly PSA tests. After 2 years of blood tests I’ve been moved back to yearly. NHS guidelines say I should remain on 6 monthly tests for another 3 years.

They said at a follow up haematology appointment that I could have called them as they had said previously because of the stem cell treatment that I would eventually get shingles and so I could have gone direct to them for help when I did get shingles. Which would have been good, but I didn't know. Excellent treatment but communication wasn't as clear.
