"Walking out of the Hospital having sat..."

About: South Tyneside District Hospital

What I liked

Walking out of the Hospital having sat around waiting for nothing!

What could be improved

Listening to the patient and allowing a patient to book an appointment to see some one when they have already had the problem diagnosed but it is clearly not healing properly. Answering phones, not saying they will put you through to someone else then hanging up.

In my profesion of I showed as little care and respect for people then I would be out of a job!

I think I will take my chances with an injury that has not healed properly rather than have to attend this circus again!

Anything else?

How much does it cost to go private?

Thank you for taking the time to let us know your views about our services.

I am extremely disappointed to learn you had such a negative experience when you visited our hospital and would like investigate this further. If you could e-mail me further details (department, dates, etc) on lorraine.lambert@stft.nhs.uk I will certainly investigate this for you and provide you a fuller response. In the meantime I offer you my apologies that some aspects of your stay were not what you should rightly expect them to be and my assurance that we do look at all feedback and ensure that we discuss it with a view to making service improvements

Kind regards

Lorraine B Lambert

Chief Executive
