St Bartholomews Hospital reviews

I have been to this hospital to visit a friend of mine who was admitted there for couple of days. During my visit I discovered that this hospital is truly exceptional! From the moment I entered the doors to the reception, I felt welcomed, …

I had a heart attack, the doctors at this hospital saved my life. I was treated with kindness and care every step of the way. I am eternally grateful for the work that people at Barts Health do.

Had a Type A Aortic Dissection surgery here. Professor Oo and his team were amazing. I’m truly grateful to you all.
I stayed for 2 weeks after my op, and was well cared for by the nurses, doctors and hospital staff. Really I’m so thankful to you all.

Best hospital . Queues are fast. I spent less than a minute when walked without appointment for X ray. And then blood test queue was moving very fast spent 30 min waiting without appointment. This is incredible in comparison to other hospitals where you can spend hours and hours . Very good hospital. Well done.

Went with my girlfriend for an MRI scan, reception went smoothly but then after 40 minutes of waiting nobody came to call her name however people would constantly be taken in. After we checked with the reception a lady came literally 10 …

I would like to say thank you to all the 4C ward for taking so great care of my father.
Thank you to the nurses that they are working so hard and always happy to assist …

I have been coming hear for the 3 years and this hospital is an example of shear brilliance! The building, grounds, facilities and staff are amazing! There are very limited disabled parking bays onsite, however, there’s plenty on surrounding roads and even the underground car park.

THE BEST HOSPITAL IN ENGLAND Thank You Very Much to Doctor’s Nurses and all the Staff Who have look after me in the Ward 5 D All of them have done more than enough they are simply the Best Of The Best Believe me J.D.Stone Great Britain

Don’t use the free phone taxi phone in the reception. We pushed the top button had to wait 30 mins for collection and then it was a normal car with no badge or trip meter for fare amount. The diver took us to our destination which was only …

A State of the Art Hospital with staff to match. A close friend attended Ward 3D for an angiogram. The staff were caring, friendly and professional. Although very busy, her every need was attended to. Courteous and efficient, the ward was …

Orribile experience, most of the doctors and nurses are students, they have no ideas what are they doing, first time in my life I felt so unsafe in a hospital, two day in here with no food no toilet, noone came to clean or change my bed
It’s very sad that such a hospital is ending in such a orribile conditions

My haematologist is based in Barts Hospital. Nice hospital, clean, modern and amazing people are working there. I’m in remission 5 years, and I have no words to describe how grateful I am to my doctor Silvia Montoto, her team and the NHS. …

Had a bad experience with one of the phlebotomists today. First time I’ve seen her and because my veins are so thin she couldn’t draw blood in the first instance. She pulled the needle out and tried to reuse the same needle on the same …

Been there a number of times for blood tests and everyone the staff have been efficient, friendly and capable. And judging by how fast my GP gets the results back, also efficient in the processing of the blood.

Our hearts go out to the General Surgery Team, Consultant Ms Alessandro Ferro, Specialty Registrar Mr Joshua Agllinko, Foundation 1 Doctor Dr Daniel Naqvi, Dr Ommar Ugas, Dr Ozko and Dr Mohamaud Chuggard for looking after us and proud of …

Not great with communication my partner went over from Belfast. On the 1st January was due opp on Tuesday the 3rd they couldn’t get the spinal tap in.. so opp didn’t happen. Left family waiting 10 hours to find out the opp didn’t happen. Its a joke.

My first visit to the cardiac imaging dept, hopefully my last , from the lady on reception,( who spoke head down to her keyboard) too the nurse who shouted to the only person(me) In the waiting room too the guy/ nurse who for whatever …

Very bad experience at Paget Ward! Keep away from this hospital! Hospital transport is rubbish , Paget Ward is the worst. This hospital deserves 0 star.

This secret square is so lovely and quite, the Hospital not so much.
If you are in the hospital and can get out for a break I could not think of a more pretty place to come, lots of seating, some sheltered others just under the …

Fantastic Staff, nurses are so caring, always go one step beyond for there patients

I have always thought Barts was a fabulous Hospital, I have had surgery and Chemotherapy there and I cannot fault them for the care and professional approach of all the Staff I have dealt with. Today I visited for a blood test carried out …

The MRI cardiology area clearly has issues. People in reception were nice and friendly. However, took mother into theatre to have MRI, first person giving injection couldn’t find a pulse had to do it twice, and hurt her, but didn’t seem to …

Unfortunately I just cannot share any positive feedback about St Bart’s Hospital. This is by far the worst place I’ve been treated at. Extremely disorganised and unprofessional. The waiting times are criminal – they stole 7 precious months …

Going through my medical procedures for bowel cancer. I was given details to book myself medical check test for Barts hospital RLH. Only I was asked by a female phone staff why I didn’t attend a hospital appointment last Sunday because I …

The only problem I experienced is that they use BMI measuring for weight which doesn’t work. I understand if it is a directive from above but it doesn’t work for everyone. My Dr is excellent and I enjoy visiting. First place to offer me a …

This is the way to prayer room in Bart’s hospital. It is where the old canteen is. The staff at hospital know about it

Had a succesful heart procedure at the hospital. Efficient yet soulless place. Really could have donewith another day of recovery there (hence 4 stars)

General Cardiology – People who are unlucky enough to have a mental health diagnosis on their record are subject to unfair discrimination.Your presented heart problem symptoms are subsequently dismissed as a result and not taken …

My mum was an outpatient who was bedbound and came to St Barts for an Oncologist appointment. Due being bedbound, she had to be transferred around the Hospital to find a more appropriate place to carry out the appointment. Shows lack of …

Cannot fault them, the cardiology department have looked after me so well for over 7 years now. They are kind, understanding and will answer any questions or concerns you have. I’ve phoned them up a couple of times due to issues with my heart and they’ve gotten back to me straight away. Thank you all for being amazing 🥰 …

Sincere Thanks to doctors and nursing staff at the St Barts heart centre for their excellent care and attention. Couple of points: many friends and family couldn’t reach me as switchboard were unable to locate me despite 10 days in …

Received wonderful care in the west wing for an outpatients appointment. Cannot thank every member of staff that I met enough. They made me feel at ease and I was seen without much of a delay.

I had an appointment cardiovascular stress section. A nurse wanted enject me in arm and it didn’t work well and another woman who I think is British Indian(they did not tell me their names!!??) said to me are you superstacius!!!??? I said …

Excellent hospital very cooperative staff thankyou to all hospital team

Went there for a meal after Mayor of London’s parade. Buildings, especially the room we used was beautiful. There is building works going on.

I received the most amazing care at the breast unit in the West Wing. Every member of staff made were lovely and made me feel at ease. Superb! I would highly recommend

Why does It have ” un-used land ” and why a private hospital on a public
Hospital site? Great they have a minor injuries unit which can actually see you.

Awful hospital with most disgusting management ever.
Patients won’t get a good care either
Its poorly runned and everything takes ages to sort out( especially emergencies, )

I am still in disbelief at the way we were treated at the breast clinic today. Uncaring, unprofessional and to put it mildly simply rude!! Have never experienced such poor service from the NHS, hopefully my first and last experience of Barts breast clinic!! If I could I would have given 0 stars.

They are best . Cardiology personal ,nurse ,doctor any one are very smiles and profesional . I feel like my home thank you for your help .

Came here for a pacemaker and staff were great. Due to complications one day stay turned to 3 and they tended to my every need. Food was good and was offered tea and asprin often. Was given towels and shampoo for ensuite shower every day. All staff were stellar.

Would have gave zero and it would still be generous
A company that steals from their employees by forcing them to work durring unpaid brakes. …

All staff are all good communicators here. I was nervous about the appointment but the doctors and nurses went out of their way to comfort and reassure me. Nurse Irene was empathetic and kind. The pharmacist explained all the different meds and I felt I was visiting a private hospital or spa. Deeply impressed

Hi there,
Good afternoon.
I’m reviewing the reason why, I have an appointment on the 17th February 22, …

The hospital has several departments which are busy. Doctors, employers and nurses are working very hard

The waiting times and quality of surgeries are CRIMINAL.
Still waiting for over 1 year to have a surgery within the ENT department and over 9 months for an appointment for the Colo-Rectal department. …

Fantastic level of care. Nothing is too much trouble, all the staff on ward 6A Intensive Care Unit/Adult Critical Care are professional, friendly and caring. The hospital is spotless. The staff nurses and consultants always keep me up to date on my fathers condition without me having to ask. I’m so thankful my father was sent here.

I had an ultrasound of my neck yesterday – and had a FANTASTIC ultrasonographer! Very helpful, knowledgeable and I felt very relaxed and comfortable
Amazing doctor, and a lovely support team too!
Thank you for all you are doing!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in August. I cannot praise the treatment I have had highly enough. The breast care team have been kind, friendly and extremely efficient. Answering my queries and dealing with any issues so quickly it …

Staffs, doctors and nurses are friendly, happy to help. Neat and clean. Big hospital with many departments. Modern facilities are available here. Enough space for waiting people. Directions are little bit confusing but we need to consider …

Up until Tuesday 17th March 2020, I had never been to Barts Hospital or for that matter, to any other Hospital as an urgent critical in-patient. But talk about saving the best till last? …

I wanted to thank the incredible nurses and doctors in the breast screening services and breast clinic in the west wing, as well as the wonderful nurse doing covid screening at the entrance to the main hospital who took the time to walk me …

The only person nice to me were the two ladies who welcomed me and the nurse who waited with me before the “doctor” called me in. The while experience was traumatic. …

Had three heart attacks during my 40s, Barts helped make each occasion less traumatic.
I have noticed a review or two about the management culture. However, I strongly …

Had an amazing experience at this hospital.

Really looked after by the doctors and taken care of by the staff. I was in …

My husband had a heart bypass operation last week at St Bartholomew’s. The operation went very well and he is now at home recovering. The consultant and all the doctors were fantastic, they explained what was going to happen and what did …

Professional Hospital for heart patients check up appointments. Non- A&E Hospital

Fertility center is well behind everyone in London they don’t even have all the tests available for both men and women like the other fertility do nor do they even have all the treatments available they can only do limited things which has no real value at the end of the day

I am not at all impressed with the oncology department…..I’m still waiting for my treatment to start. Nobody communicates, you can’t get hold of the consultants because most of them are running private practices elsewhere, you can’t even …

I had to go to St. Barts because a glass jar shattered onto my foot and my toe would not stop bleeding. I arrive in the hospital with a makeshift bandage around 11pm. I check in and I tell reception I can’t walk without getting blood …

I am leaving this review for St Bartholomew Hospital for the following reasons:

My father had a heart operatoin for a mechanical aortic valve replacement in …

Incredible world class care. My brother spent nearly a month at St Bartholomew’s Hospital and he received an almost unbelievable level of personal care from the nursing staff and doctors. Thanks in particular to nurses Natalie and Ellie …

I cannot praise the care and dedication of the staff at St Bartholomew’s Hospital enough! …

Spent 2 weeks visiting this place while my mum had her cancer treatment. While being a difficult time for my family the staff at this hospital was lovely and approachable. Lovely facilities for patients and visitors. One of the best hospitals out there.

Just had a go at by a staff member called orline just for asking If they could wait a minute as was receiving a very important phone call about my rent being mucked around with meaning I would have no where to live when I came out. This …

Went for a MRI SCAN on a sunday. Staff was rushing and didn’t even sent the out come to my GP. I had to chase it up. Boy that was a headache. Switchboard pasting me onto into different extensions. MRI didn’t even answer the phone. Still not sorted up to now. Nightmare

All staff were extremely polite, helpful, friendly and courteous.
This was from the receptionists, Imaging 3 Department sonographers and ECG personnel, right upto the Consultant Dr Oliver Guttmann (Consultant Cardiologist) …

The service is excellent however, the waiting time is far too long. My appointment was at 3:15pm and I was seen at 4pm. Another appointment took 4 hours in total, had to wait to see a doctor and have a blood test. It’s why I’m giving a 3 star.

The lung function test unit people are rude and just forget that there are people waIcing to be tested! G consultant Dr. White is wonderful but because I have to get the lung function done, it just ruins the whole experience.. the girls at …

The staff here were lovely, attentive and caring.

Yes minor injuries had a long wait but you get seen to on the day and they go …

Absolutely amazing, it has better service than a 5 star hotel. I was in and out in 45 minutes with X-rays done and diagnosis. The staff were amazing throughout and I had to deal with many different people who were friendly, down to earth and helpful in every aspect. Thank you

While I was in the office in Hatton Garden, I felt sick and needed to see a doctor, a gynecologist.
I came here and after a while I was visited… The doctor didn’t solve my …

I have unfortunatley just lost my partner under the care of Mr shamash, after being mislead. We were informed by Mr shamash and his team that my partners cancer was going in the right direction. I can only reach out to anyone who is under …

Beautiful building, kind & respectful staff

I had to stay in the Coronary Care Unit for a couple of days earlier this week when working in London. The staff were fantastic, helpful; professional and with enough humour to lighten things when appropriate, and couldn’t do enough for …

Love going to St. Barts. Nearly 900 years old (the oldest hospital in the world!) and where Sherlock famously stepped off the roof to his ”death”, it’s just a lovely place. Beautiful architecture and lovely inner courtyard with fountain …

All I can say if this is a good heart hospital I don’t want to be treated at the worst. I was transferred from UCLH to have angiogram and be returned for discharge and cardio rehab. They had me sectioned and transferred to Hackney Mental …

I have been to St Barts for the last 2 years and staff has always been helpful, friendly and supportive. They listen to you and provide the appropriate support. I was seen by Oliver Guttmann, great person and specialist. Very friendly, …

Doctors are really nice but the staff is highly un professional, you won’t get reply until you chase them or contact higher management. …

It has been a long time since leaving St Barts after a lengthy stay there and to be perfectly honest it was although at times scary, the most wonderful experience of my life. The doctors, nurses that looked after me day by day were …
