Golden Jubilee National Hospital

Hospital

👍👍 I arrived at the hospital on the 5th October to have my large bowel removes and a stoma fitted. The care of the staff can not be faulted, each and every one did their best to make my stay as good as possible. I left the hospital on the 14th to head home feeling that I had been treated with the most...

East Lothian Community Hospital

Hospital

👍 The new 'East Lothian Community Hospital' is a much better facility than before (though the original 1930s buildings were nice). The new hospital is huge, and there is a fair bit of walking to the wards/rooms etc. The open nature of the reception area and cafeteria can seem a bit impersonal. The sta...

Vale of Leven District Hospital

General hospital

😠 Injury to shoulder lead me to the Vale of Leven hospital to see a doctor. The staff are friendly and the nurse who saw me really tried her best to answer my questions on condition after my x ray. But could see she was struggling, so asked when would I be seeing a doctor.... To which she replied ther...

New Victoria Hospital

Hospital

😠 Used the minor injuries for the first time ever as my son had a suspected concussion, was sick and had a severe headache. GP couldn’t check so told me to take him to hospital. (NHS phone line has horrendous waiting times). I called the new Victoria and was told I could take him there. On arrival...

Stobhill Hospital

General hospital

😠 Over a week ago I had an out of hours visit in minor injuries. I had a severe pain in my kidney, the doctor said that isn' a kidney and I don't even know where my kidney is. And sent me home with nothing. Just take painkillers which make me sick. The next day an ambulance picked me up from my house...

Gartnavel General Hospital

Government hospital

🫤 How can a buzzer from a patient buzz for ten minutes and three members of nursing staff completely ignore it???? I am utterly disgusted at the lack of attention and bed side manner from the staff here. I feel sad for the patients who are unable to speak up for themselves.

4.30 (166 reviews) (~70.51 km from centre)

Perth Royal Infirmary

Hospital

😠 I attended Perth audiology dept. with my mother who has memory issues (onset of Dementia) on 12 Nov to be fitted for new hearing aids. I wasn’t allowed in with her due to covid and other patients in dept so noise had to be kept to a minimum. We waited 30 minutes before she was seen and never saw or...

Stracathro Hospital

Hospital

👍👍 Recently had full hip replacement surgery. The nurses were amazing, all of them, kind, caring, and so supportive and encouraging, nothing was ever too much trouble, simply the best in my view. The OT and Physios were equally amazing. My consultant was so approachable,the theatre nurses and anaesthet...

Borders General Hospital

General hospital

👍👍 Can’t thank you all enough caring for my wonderful 90 year old Dad. He’s one of many I know and you are all overworked but Dad and I are so grateful and in awe of you all. Thank you and hoping government can put some radical changes in place to really help you. Heather & Bill Dickson PS Lovely Docto...

Berwick Infirmary

General hospital

👍👍 Went to MIU, no queues, nurse helped us promptly. X-ray machine wasn't available that day.

4.20 (38 reviews) (~76.5 km from centre)

Western General Hospital

Government hospital

👍👍 Great hospital with exceptional staff. Doctors and nurses were very caring, understanding and informative with me to the point of arranging for other specialists to come and have a chat with me and discuss my options. Special mention for all the hardworking staff and nurses in Ward 75, 53 and 23, th...

4.10 (287 reviews) (~3.07 km from centre)

University Hospital Hairmyres

General hospital

👍👍 Couldn’t get near my GP today and was told by the GP receptionist to call NHS24. They advised me to go to A&E Hairmyres. The place was mobbed and the wait was long (heard a lot of similar stories while I waited of people being directed there by GP for minor stuff). Despite how manic it was the recep...

Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh

General hospital

😠 After being readmitted after a heart bypass, I had an excruciating 19 hour wait in Accident and Emergency, they lost my records, left me on a trolley outside in the hall and outside cubicles. I was clearly in agony and I brought along my letter and medication which I thought was self explanatory. I...

3.90 (482 reviews) (~4.77 km from centre)

Forth Valley Royal Hospital

Hospital

😠 Only giving one because you can’t give less. Not encouraging to have a nurse who is outright nasty and laughs in your face and seems to enjoy exacerbating an already horrid situation. Even the hospital manager for that day who came to assist after I complained said he witnessed staff being “confront...

3.90 (300 reviews) (~41.78 km from centre)

Royal Alexandra Hospital

Hospital

😠 I was in A&E from 1pm till 8.30pm. During this time i only managed to get through Triage, and get blood and heart tests done, could not see a doctor as they were too busy and kept getting told there's 3 people in front of you, but 3 hours later there's another 3 people. Eventually i left, i had enou...

Queen Elizabeth University Hospital

University hospital

😠 Terrible hospital! Nothing but a vanity project! Difficult to access from the motorway (for which it sits next to). Completely impractical layout! Whoever designed this place obviously never actually spoke to the doctors and nurses that will be using it. Partner has sepsis a couple years ago and was...

3.70 (755 reviews) (~72.51 km from centre)

University Hospital Wishaw

General hospital

👍👍 Mum attended day surgery department today (14/10/22) for a surgical procedure. Staff were wonderful in looking after her and keeping me informed during the day. When Mum was discharged, lovely staff member brought Mum down to where I'd parked my car to collect her. Many thanks to the staff at Day su...

3.70 (234 reviews) (~51.15 km from centre)

Ninewells Hospital

General hospital

😠 I am being quite generous with the one-star rating. The patient-care is appalling. I have been in hospital for almost a week and yet no-one has even given me at least 30 minutes of attention for my painful state. They think because I am more on the young side that I am perfectly fine, whilst my abdo...
