Glenfield Hospital reviews

This week I had to unexpectedly visit the Glenfield Hospital and ended up in the Emergency Outpatient ward having to undergo a blood test, an ECG scan and an x-ray. The ward was immaculate and from the second I walked into the unit to the …

My mum passed away today at Glenfield hospital ward 20 . I want to thank you for the kindness , support and dignity you showed our mum and us x Throughout the whole heartache you was with us x I can’t explain enough how great you all are x …

Absolutely fantastic. Our NHS may be under immense pressure but I cannot thank the nurses and clinical staff and the junior and senior cardiologists for their service today. Thank you.

Today I have get done my HSG , everything is very clean and tidy. It was amazing experience, expected it will be unbearable pain but believe me they did very smoothly nicely, just like a smear test..thank you

I had a surgical procedure under the surgical team at Vanguard surgical unit, Glenfield hospital. Having heard regarding the back logs and the waiting times of the NHS, I went in expecting a chaotic procedure. In fact, the care I received …

Visited the Radiology Department today, very friendly staff and efficient. I was seen earlier than my appointment time , in and out and back home before I was due to be seen. We’ll done the Radiology Department.

All staff from CV cleaning, catering, housekeeping and portering through to registrars are wonderful. Consultants are aloof, arrogant and have forgotten how to act with lesser human beings. This is being said after 3 separate stays. …

The hospital itself deserves 5 stars. But the car parking is a shambolic mess. There is very little space for visitors including outpatients. Staff have parking all over the place including an overflow car park on Groby Road near the …

While working on CDU as a support worker I unfortunately became unwell the staff were absolutely fantastic Doctors Nurses Nurse in charge Vicky, and Staff Nurse Maddie were brilliant with my care and were very tentative to my needs, a big …

Shockingly bad hospital. If, as an inpatient, you like to be ignored, left in pain for hours and left to soil yourself and be left in it for a long time, then I can recommend Glenfield. The staff are so ignorant and do not care at all …

Just want to say a massive thank you to all the staff that treated me yesterday so kind and lovely made me at ease. And to the lady that sat with me while having a ct scan your a gem. X

My mum is currently in this hospital 🏥 and she has been looked after so perfect 👌 she was in Leicester Royal Infirmary before and THAT IS THE WORST HOSPITAL EVER!!!! DO NOT GO TO LEICESTER ROYAL INFIRMARY if you can help it. Please try and get admitted to Glenfield Hospital 🏥 as it’s THE BEST HOSPITAL!!! 🌈😍💖🥰🦄 …

Visited Glenfield Hospital Radiology department for the first time for my X-Ray done. Process was swift and smooth.

Excellent staff and wonderful meals. There are even some comfy beds. Brilliant hospital

I was sent for a chest X-Ray by my GP. First class service and I was in and out so fast that I didn’t have to park for more than 20 minutes so free parking too! Thank you NHS

Busy ! Car park payment system complicated ! needs simplifying ! such a long queue with folk trying to understand the system ! Waited on entry for a ticket ! No ticket issued just takes a picture of your numberplate ! on way out need to put …

A very big hospital, but when I got on the ward, it was brilliant, looked after very well both before and after surgery.
Great staff, they made me very comfortable.

Staff were so lovely, I was at CDU initially and was seen quite quickly, nurses who did my tests and asked questions were respectful and lovely! Then was moved to same day emergency care with Mandy who was lovely and accommodating while I …

My husband was referred to SDEC. Great care from the friendly receptionist who greeted us, to the lovely nurses who did a battery of tests, to the doctor who was professional and kind. Thankfully everything is ok. So impressed with the unit. Thanks to everyone involved.

Its annoying as it should be better. Nurses and drs do not work together. My girlfriend has been told last 4 days in all mornings she was 99% going home so obviously excited to come to myself and our week old son then late afternoon told …

Tried to call to be put through to the assessment dept for incoming heart emergency’s, my mum is 87 and taken in with chest and arm pains, she has Angina and has previously suffered from a heart attack. The receptionist tried to put me …

How lovely are the staff here.Polite,friendly and unrushed.Well done all of you especially radiology staff

I had a very positive experience in Radiology for my CT aorta recently. I am difficult to cannulation but the Radiographers went out of their way to make me feel at ease and not a nuisance and managed to it first time. Well done The Glenfield Hospital. It makes me feel a little more at ease about the upcoming surgery. Charlotte.

Great hospital, very friendly staff, very helpful fast service.

Mother had procedure done by Viktor Zlocha very impressed with Mr Zlocha and his team plus ward 31. All a credit to the NHS and this fine Leicester Specialist Hospital that we should all be grateful is in the county.

Accompanied friend to pacemaker clinic. They were very efficient and helpful.

I was very poorly when first admitted,staff were friendly,explained what was going on and informative,

After Operation unfortunately as nice as the staff are they are understaffed and after serious major surgery pain relief is continually delayed.

Just been for a AAA scan, excellent service was seen ten minutes before my appointment time so didn’t even have to pay for parking , thank you

Lovely staff and atmosphere but I got lost.. might need a few more signs.

Appointments on time, only issue was car park which was busy due tobuilding work being carried out.

Can’t fault my Consultant but going to the Physio department is another ball game. Poor time keeping generally and as you have 30min slots every minute is precious. Had one male physiotherapist this morning, five mins late, five mins to …

I’ve had a bone scan today. I cant remember the lady’s name who injected me with the radio active liquid but she was lovely and did a great job and Becky looked after me in the scanner was so professional and kind.

Masks and cleaning station easily accessible, friendly reception team. Only criticism is being unable to walk far there does not appear to be any help getting around the hospital as a visitor. I felt uncomfortable asking for help.

Very helpful staff. Would be useful if the parking machine’s accepted debit/credit cards. Had a long walk into hospital foyer to change machine & back to car park, then back to hospital again.

Every staff here is very friendly. Whether doctors or nurses, they will put themselves in the patient’s shoes. I love them all. I hope everything is all right in this hospital.

Have been coming here since birth (30 odd years) – always pleased with treatments, communication, cleanliness and being treated as a person, not just an NHS number. Friendly staff! Great aftercare and phone access when sick.

Had a 2 week referral appointment at the Breast Care Clinic. It was busy but well organised. The staff are very efficient and friendly. Fortunately for me the results were fine. You can get a complimentary hot drink whilst you wait which is nice.

On May 15, 2020, I underwent mitral valve repair (open heart surgery) at Glenfield – a complete triumph thanks to the genius of Mr Zlocha and his team. In the ICU I was truly blessed to be cared for by two amazing nurses, Gemma and Claire, …

CDU (respiratory) has the best staff ever. They have all taken excellent care of my dad who had a collapsed lung. Couldn’t have asked for kinder, more attentive, professional, incredible people caring for him. Best in the world. Thank you so very much.

Was in ward 19 over night. Not used to going into hospital especially with present virus problems. Found all staff from Doctors to Domestic staff absolutely wonderful. The nursing staff were so attentive. Many thanks to Nurse Wendy.

Spent most Saturday and Sunday in Adult CDU. What amazing, kind, thorough, patient delightful staff from the most junior to the most senior. It requires an infinite amount of patience to be there but you need to tell yourself it’s because …

I worked here for many years on so many wards and departments in return to be denied any help at all that I need and since 2009 have lived daily with a GP telling me that I can die any day.NOT GOOD NEWS AT ALL

The staff were very friendly and professional, everything was explained to me …

Staff very friendly, went for a scan and was seen before my appointment time! Would now prefer attending this hospital over others local.

The overall experience in relation to treatment is good at the physio therapy department but no one ever picks up the phone. I’ve tried for the last 2 days and numerous attempts to get through to rearrange a physio appointment and the phone …
