The NHS want you to have the best possible experience of care. The NHS Friends and Family Test is a way of gathering your feedback, so we can continually review our service.

It is based on one simple question:

"Overall, how was your experience of our service?"

Your feedback will help us learn more about what you think of your experience – what you like and what you think we could improve. Ultimately, you’re helping us to make changes that will ensure we can offer the best possible care.

Patient feedback

We asked the question:
Please can you tell us why you gave your answer? Please tell us anything that we could have done better.

Our appointment was on time and the nurse was really calm, friendly and reassuring with my child which made it an stress-free experience for us both.

Why when I'm having blood taken for testing can't blood be taken for a PSA test. I'm certainly in the vulnerable age group, and I haven't seen a doctor in many years, so I feel that I'm slipping between the floorboards as far as the NHS is concerned.

Charlotte Charlton is always so warm and welcoming, she makes us all feel at ease, did amazing with my little boy who was a bit anxious about the nasal flu but happy to receive a sticker, she was patient and kind, got down to his level and explained what was happening. Thank you for all the hard work you do and the enthusiasm and encouragement you bring :)

I was referred to Slimming World earlier this year by the Diabetic Nurse due to blood tests detecting that I was in the pre-diabetic range. Since attending, I have lost 2 stone and am no longer pre-diabetic. I have adopted healthy eating and am now much more active due to weight loss. I would be grateful if you could inform Dr Wyatt.

It's great that as a pensioner yearly checks are done. It means that illnesses can be detected earlier and possibly save the NHS time and money. Routine checks are important and vital. I received excellent service from the nurse who saw me. Thank you.
