Went to orthopedic ward yesterday for some block injections all day appointment and could not fault one thing the team of staff were so caring and I was taken care of so professionally. The ward was kept so clean. It was painful but the …

This rating purely personal toward an individual that works at this hospital. To say I’m gobsmacked by your lack of compassion is an understatement.
You are by far the rudest doctor I have come across, terrible attitude with …

Harry has been for an op on his arm this morning with the amazing Mr Peter Hughes and his team.
From start to finish everyone involved from Rawcliffe day case and Theatre has …

Recently had Prostate removal operation.
I was treated with kindness and high degree of professional competence by all the staff. …

Went to a+e last Monday afternoon the whole team from the reception the triage nurse then doctor Bazzas team on the day where absolutely fantastic. The care and professionalism of the team was second to none. Thank you once again.

What fantastic service the staff are giving, like a 5 star hotel, mums in , very family friendly and caring staff, even though, very busy. The food lets it down, but that’s an external company. We’ll done.

On 23rd August I went into Leyland ward. Mr Bourne operated on my neck to remove a disc in my neck for the second time. As the first he did a fantastic job. He has also removed a disc in my lower spine too. All the staff in the wards were brilliant too and I would like to thank each and every one of them.

So pleased I went here. I am new to this town and needed antibiotics for a dental emergency whilst I wait to go to the dentist. I was put at ease by all the kind staff who work very hard to get everyone seen as quick as possible. I was …

I have had several appointments recently and more to come. In my opinion this hospital is second to none. The staff are professional but friendly and very caring. When I read about waiting lists in other parts of the country I think we are so Blessed with our NHS in Chorley hospital.

Took my partner here a couple of weeks ago, late at night, with a post surgery infection. The staff were absolutely amazing. Caring and compassionate, efficient in their administration of care and got him to where he needed to be very quickly. I cannot praise them highly enough.

My optician referred me to Chorley Hospital with suspected tear in retina. When I arrived at Urgent Care it was standing room only. Although It was clear that it was extremely busy and stressful the staff that dealt with me were lovely. The …

It would have been 5 stars, but the lady on the switchboard let you down!( she was a little abrupt, to say the least!)
I called 111 and the nurse got me an appointment at urgent care at Chorley. …

Just visited the Endoscopy unit at Chorley hospital, have got to give five stars for the nurses and the doctor.
They made me totally at ease with their absolute professionalism and humanity. …

I attended urgent care with my husband last night after he injured his knee. All the staff were really nice but the lady doctor who saw him was an absolute star and she explained everything to him in great detail. I don’t know her name but she is an asset to the department.

Outstanding. I have recently had a knee replacement, All the staff were brilliant nothing too much trouble and very sympathetic and efficient to all my medical needs. I can highly recommend all the staff especially on the Leyland ward.

I went to A@E at Chorley on Monday 10th October with chest pain I was admitted to MAU then coronary care The treatment I received from every ward was amazing MAU was manic and they never stopped all night but the care to everyone was …

I have attended the A&E dept this morning. I can not be any more gratefull for the kidness and genuine care I have received from the minute I stepped in. The assessment nurse who has seen me when I arrived was fantastic. The A&E doctor …

Just been to the urgent care unit and was fantastic from arriving to leaving ok the wait time was a bit lengthy but was still in and out in 2hrs. Got the care I needed without the interrogation I got at my doctors! X

somewhat nice staff creepy building as all hospitals are and good treatment but they dont treat under 18s anymore for minor injuries such as breaks

i would give 0 star if allowed. Long story short… seeing dermatologist for the last 2 years. Suffering from severe psoriasis. Fobbed off with creams that have made my condition worse. Using Google in front of me for solutions. (they call …

Waited at urgent care for 3 hours just for them to tell us that we needed to book an appointment at Preston hospital about the situation

What a wonderful team at A&E. one of the best services I have experienced. Very kind and helpful skilled nurses and doctors. Waiting time very short even that they were so busy. Massive Thanks

Apparently don’t go to A and E after 8pm with an injury- or you’ll get turned away. Only deal with “illness” after 8pm. My relative has just been turned away and has to go to Preston when she has a severe injury/infection on her hand- no …

That’s the slowest emergency ever!!! Don’t go there if you are in risk to die.! 😡 I have been with my boyfriend there. But he couldn’t se the doctor before answer 300 questions!!!I think as a emergency should be attend much quicker than in …

Cancelled my appointment for a cast to be taken off so I jokingly said I’d cut it off myself ( i was manic and its written all
over my notes that i have bipolar ) as they didn’t even know when the follow up …

I attended Chorley Urgent Care unit on 15th October at approximately 10.45 am. I was transferred to the Medical Assessment ward at about 2.45 pm, I left at 9.55 pm. A long day, not only for me, but for each and every member of staff that …

Went for endoscopy at chorley and the nursing staff on the unit are absolutely fantastic, very friendly and caring and I honestly cannot fault the attention I received. They make you feel comfortable and relaxed and the Dr doing procedure was great,explained everything and was very reassuring.

Called up, for an update and results as I never get any communication from anyone. The lady who answers the main number for the hospital is disgustingly rude. No care given, forever trying to chase things up, never get a phone call back …

Attended Chorley fracture clinic this morning. Excellent care throughout my visit. Every member of staff was kind, helpful and professional. Very lucky to have our NHS.

Always polite and helpful staff / medical staff. Never any problems when attending for treatment.

I have to say after a long wait and expensive car parking the Doctor I saw in the Fracture Clinic Mr Hamed was amazing he went through everything with me showing me my scan and the damaged area of my knee. He took time to explain why I was …

Had a telephone appointment for 3.30 pm on 6th December with respiratory clinic so finished work early to be ready. The call never came. I understand they can be busy so waited by the phone until 6.30. I called the clinic the day after and …

Audio/video record everything! Otherwise they’ll deny everything!

I have already made a small complaint initially to PALS. I’m still awaiting an …

Attended with my daughter on a Bank Holiday weekend. We were seen quickly and received excellent care from every member of staff, including the receptionist who brought my daughter paper & crayons while we were waiting.

What an absolute joke of a night I have had here. Took my partner here as she was referred from 111, only 2 patients in a&e for the duration and still took 4 hours to see her and they send her to Preston anyway. Just a joke, which is a shame as normally they are not so bad.

Dental team here are disgraceful. I’ve been waiting to be seen as urgent for 6 months. After my dentist phoned up to see why I haven’t been seen they miraculously find a telephone app for me. The telephone app is now an hour past …

The care I recieved during my short stay yesterday at the endoscopy dept was highly praiseworthy. The nurses are a credit to the hospital & the NHS esp Danielle who held my hand throughout the procedure and was so reassuring throughout. Thanks to the all the nurses for making me feel at ease. Much appreciated.

So yesterday I attended Chorley Hospital for a Brain and Spine MRI . I was taken to the mobile MRI Scan for the procedure. I suffer panic attacks and having an MRI is always extremely difficult for me however on this occasion I was greeted …

On Wednesday 3 November I was admitted as an inpatient to Chorley Hospital. From being in the Medical Assessment Unit to Hazelwood ward the care and attention given was first class. The staff at all grades were friendly and attentive. Every …

The service and care for my wife from the eye hospital at Chorley has been outstanding.

The staff here are super friendly and accommodating. They also listen to you and are careful when trying to figure out a diagnosis. I’ve been suffering with liver pain for months. The preston hospital dismissed me over and over and kept …

Excellent service by the welcome team. I was able to find a disabled parking lot, and the desk staff helped me sign in with my badge.Then the fracture clinic was most helpful with my wife’s conditions.

Had to attend Rawcliffe Ward as a day patient for planned surgery recently. From the point of entering the ward to that of departure everyone was extremely efficient and so pleasant in their manner it was unbelievable. If only that could be the case in every hospltal. Thankyou so much Rawcliffe Ward.

My mum went into hospital for assessment. The service was slow and a long process. It wasn’t until a week later and after numerous tests days before, before the cause was revealed. Update, my mum is still in there after 4 weeks, been told …

I had to attend the GI physiology department this morning. I suffer from panic attacks & as I had to travel by taxi alone from Preston. I was very stressed by the time I arrived. Can I just say thank you so much to the staff, who were …

Went to Chorley hospital today with my 8 year old son. The consultant was lovely as were the nurses. They went to a lot of time and trouble to ensure that his first blood test was a stress free experience. I couldn’t fault them. My son rated the whole experience 10/10.

My late dad has recently spent 6 weeks in Chorley Hospital and he has been treated with the utmost care and dignity by the Staff on each of the Wards he was admitted to…Hazelwood, CCU and Rawcliffe. In these most awful times, we have only …

Fabulous hospital. Every member of staff I’ve come into contact with here has been brilliant. Today was just blood test and what a great experience. Parked near the entrance and there were lots of spaces. In the entrance I was asked if I …

I was more than impressed when I visited late evening on a Sunday with an injured leg. I was seen quickly and sent for an x ray within 15 mins of arriving. The staff were lovely, helpful and caring. I was out within an hour of arriving, I would most definitely come here again if I needed too, such an efficiently ran centre.

Communication systems appalling. Lancashire Eye Clinic is the worst NHS unit I have ever had the misfortune to use. Disinterested staff dysfunctional systems, dishonest staff and complete disorganisation. Since eyes, medically speaking, …

I had an appointment this afternoon with Dr Dobson , Consultant Dermatologist at Chorley hospital and have to say the department is being run extremely efficiently and is well organised especially under the present circumstances. …

Brought my stepdaughter to the Urgent Treatment Centre and received excellent treatment. It was only a 20 minutes wait before she saw the consultant and he was so lovely with her; very understanding, considerate and explained things very well. Thank you.

Had to visit after a bad fall injuring my hand. Could not get parked on site due to Covid clinics etc. filling up the car parks but managed to park 300m away. Once in the A&E was dealt with speedily and efficiently, the staff friendly & caring. Could not rate the service higher – Thank You!

This review is for the NURSING STAFF at the COVID HUB on Thursday 6th May 2021. Absolutely amazing and very thoughtful to me. After recently being in hospital and having bulging/prolapsed discs and only home for 4 days they saw the struggle …

Well looked after by incredible staff can’t praise them enough

My husband was sent by his GP to the medical assessment unit for admission. We arrived at 3pm after being helped by a wonderful hospital volunteer and a porter to get to the unit as we are both disabled. The welcome to the unit was good. He …

Disappointed with the places to eat in this hospital 2 shops which are overpriced sandwiches and microwaved rubbish. The hot food area in the education centre is also the same microwaves are used more than the staff and it shows in the food …

Attended Rawcliffe ward for day surgery.
All staff very caring and helpful throughout.
Can’t praise staff enough for the high level of care provided to me.. Thank you

I have just returned from having an endoscopy at Chorley and south Ribble and cannot rate the staff and the care highly enough. I was made to feel comfortable and reassured all the time I was there. The whole procedure took just less than …

Initially, I went to A and E with a broken finger,

The young doctor who saw to me was very inexperienced, inattentive and rather …

Wonderful staff and best service . Had an appointment today got delay due to traffic rang the MRI department told them i am stuck in traffic and will be half an hour late for my appointment was told not to worry we will wait for you. Once i …

This has got to be the worst hospital in the UK the reception very rude my mum is in A n E crying with chest pain been in pain for 6 hours no pain relief given, basic nursing care not given. I went to the hospital and they won’t let me in to see her. They did the same with my son age 33 and he died last may. Avoid this hospital

21/07/2021.I went for a colonoscopy.
I was greeted and put at ease by Jofie who took my details and was assured by Denise,I would not have to wait so long. …

Absolutely amazed with the high level of care and professionalism this department runs with. …

Great training thank you John

Kim at urgent care could not be anymore polite or helpful. After bringing my 11 year old daughter to see a doctor at urgent care, my GP surgery (buckshaw village) was utterly incompetent in following up test results and getting my daughter …

Only 2 stars because the car parking is horrendous, despite arriving early for clinics. Waiting and waiting for a space, some cars take up two spaces. Patients are missing appointments and getting penalised because of it. Early morning …

Excellent service and treatment every time I go there. All the nurses and staff are truly amazing. I’ve never had any problems there, which says it all, really. Also, something needs to be done to save Chorley’s much needed A&E department.

I suffered a fall, resulting in a head injury, at home on the evening of Thursday 26th September 2019. (I lost my footing on the stairs.) I visited A & E at 19.31hrs I thought to have my head wound stitched. I was fast tracked and within …

Does its best, I suppose.
However, was not, for my visit there, disability friendly.
Nor are the medical staff there… worthwhile, I’m sorry to say. …

Arrived promptly for a physiotherapy appointment with my appointment letter. Administrator told me my appointment had been cancelled and reached. Why was I not informed?.Ais the NHS counting the costs that patients are out of pocket for days off work, education etc? Too many admin staff not enough nurses!

Staff. … I have never found a fault with. They are all so caring not like at rph!
Parking….. Very expensive! However this is nothing to do with the trust it is …

I give it five stars, not because I loved it… I certainly didn’t love it given I was visiting A&E after a unexpected journey over my handlebars followed by a slight amount of road rash and pain hahaha. …

Great experience from surgeon and theatre staff. Also, the nurses were fantastic on the Rawcliffe ward and gave great post-op care. Thank you.

What a joke of a hospital ended up being 15 mins late for my daughters appointment due to the worst overcrowded car park ! When I finally found a spec I went in threw the treatments and assessments way for the doziest lady who looked at me …

Left day in day out with no pain relief, absolute joke of a hospital, I will never come back here even if dying, elderly ladies sat with food in front of them but unable to feed themselves, very saddened to be witness how the elderly were …

We attended the cardiology department for a 24 hour tape with my partner. We were welcomed by the receptionist then seen within 15 mins of appointment time by a friendly professional technician who put us at ease, explained the procedure and gave clear advice of what to do. Excellent!
