Review of King George’s - Accident & Emergency,
29th November 2023


Being rushed in to hospital A&E by ambulance after a bad chest pain being told I was a main priority and will be soon quickly from 11:30pm I managed to finally get seen by a doctor 11am the next day only to be told they need another blood sample and waiting again over 2hours then being told X-ray then 1 and half hours then told ct scan then waiting many many hours and finally leaving the hospital 6pm this is ridiculous A&E receptionist have no care for you Nurses have no care for you Doctors have no care for you It was a bad day and with pain still till now after a few days but doctors told Me it’s nothing was this just to get rid of Me? As I am definitely feeling continuous pain shard and restricting my movements but doctor said nothing to worry about Really wish things would change and people would show some care finally

Was totally looked after. Was expecting large delays but was triaged fairly quickly but the wait after that was lengthy. Good clean environment and polite and helpful staff.

Suggested improvements
Just the length of time waiting even the X-ray department albeit empty

I was sent to urgent care with a migraine, visual disturbance and no tolerance to noise and sat in a crowded loud busy room for 3 hrs.. the gp then decided I needed more tests and sent to A&E with a possible clot or brain bleed… 3 further hours later a ct scan was done and some more bloods.. then there was apparently a dr there to review but no body was called for the next 12 hours.. so overall 17 hours later I was seen, given a bed for 15 mins whilst I got a drip and then sat on a chair with advise to be referred to a specialist and sent home.. for a disabled person with a migraine they sent me home worse off then coming in..

Suggested improvements
Everything!

Everyone was fantastic asides from one senior Dr. He was a bit rude and kept shouting even though I had told him I was in with a migraine attack with severe photophobia, sensitivity to noise and smell. It was when a Jr Dr then spoke up for me that he finally lowered his tone.

Suggested improvements
Please make sure that the staff involved in my care are valued and appreciated because they were fantastic. Members of staff to praise personally: The nurse in the red top that placed my cannula and took my blood samples Nurse Katie Nurse Sophie Nurse Renato Nurse Simona Nurse Elizabeth Jr Dr Farhanna

The casualty was very busy and chaotic, waited over 16 hours before I was seen. I didn't know what was going on. I was sent home after 20 hours and was not followed up as I had been told. A really awful experience.

Suggested improvements
More doctors needed and better organisation.

I have a blood disorder and I am a diabetic type 1 came via ambulance got cannulated and then x rayed then spoke to a Dr told him my issues had it documented, then was told to sit outside the waiting area, had to be isolated as I have no spleen, then 7 hours later saw a Dr and asked me what I was here for?They received my bloods 5 hours previously to find I have a serious infection which could be deadly for someone like myself. I am shocked and appalled by the way I was treated considering I’m a complex case and all my consultants are at the Queens hospital, my husband was treated disrespectful by 2 nurses with condescending answers. I told the ambulance crew to take me to Queens prior my visit to KGH but had no choice but go there, where I hope I won’t be going again

Suggested improvements
No1 you need to prioritise the cases No2 have respect for those that are unwell No3 don’t send ambulance patients in the waiting area where casualties have turned up on foot with possible mild cases No4 the change over of your Drs that time of the morning, cases need to be discussed by the drs that just come in to take over No5 organise your A&E better, never have I seen in such an unorganised manner
