I have been to A&E there twice…read more First time I had a suspected fracture to my shin. I waited for 3 hours in pain and when I finally got to see a doctor the atmosphere in there was making me feel sick. I told him that I need to go out for some air and he said that if I do that then the bed would be given to someone else. I went home unseen. Second time I went in having sliced two of my fingers down to the bone at work. The triage nurse changed the bandage for me and told me to take a seat. Whilst I sat there, the waiting time went up from 30 minutes to 4 and a half hours. Again I went home unseen. I won't go back now unless I am dying. Even then I don't think a doctor would get round to seeing me until I am actually dead.

Can't complain - fast service and you get in to see your doctor easily…read more Sexual Health clinic next door also good - Mondays is pop in night for contraceptives etc.

I used to be registered here for many years. Have recently switched as I felt the standard of care…read morewas not as good as it could be. It can feel quite impersonal here. There are not so good at calling patients in for chronic disease check ups and really rely on you bringing yourself in for that. Reception is situated away from the waiting areas so you're less likely to ask those questions that pop into your head while you're waiting. If the doctor suggests you need to see the nurse for something, you have to make another appointment and come back another day. If you have tests done and the doctor is off when the results come back, you have to wait until they are back in work to find out.

In the start of 2025 I was taken to WHISTON HOSPITAL by ambulance to A &E there is spent 8 hours in…read morethe back of an ambulance then 3 days in the corridor before and allocation of bed on a specific ward was available as I need a separate room due to personal illness and being a C Diff carrier so it's a precaution. But I had to go back on the 14th Dec to A & E once I'd had my bloods done and assessed I A and E it was only a matter of 3 hours then I was allocated a bed on observation ward then treatment began. 24hrs later I was moved to the correct ward in an a room allocated bed. This was a vast improvement which not only assist ing my physical but mental well being in itself. I have being a long term patient in and out on a regular basis been given the best care available by the doctors and nurses at Whiston and can only commend and praise the work and the treatment I have been given. Whilst I was in A&E I must admit I did see a lot of footfall come and go wanting treatment which could've been acquired and was more suitable for the walk in centre locally at the Millenium or seen a doctor if they had rang the surgery to make and emergency appt. The life and capacity is being square out of A&E due to these factors. I would like to give a huge thankyou to the drs and nurses at Whiston Hospital. Whom along with treatment have not only shown me their care but with compassion and empathy also. Hats off to you Whiston Hospital you can only work with what you've got but within 6 months I myself have experienced a vast and impressive improvement. Thanking you Donna McLean

Poor care, my mother says she would rather die than go to Whiston!!…read more The place is new and soulless, clean and tidy, but no care, staff talk between themselves, while you stand waiting to ask for help. They managed to lose my mothers belongings, broke her hearing aid, they could not understand how important a hearing aid is, thinking shouting at a deaf person is the only answer. When you ask for info the Drs answer was I have not seen her, the nurse pulled out a scrap of paper from her pocket!! what happened to records? To telephone you need a password, but you have to go in to get the password, the system is just not right. Car parking a joke, no info on the web site, even parking attendants telling you to park on the grass, taxi ranks full of cars parked in the wrong place. Not enough disabled bays, so cars just dumped all over the area. WH Smiths is so expensive just to buy water or sweets, at least Costa Coffee was ok. All in all It was very disappointing, when the care is so bad for patients they say they will not press the care alarm again, it must be bad. Some nurses were lovely, but it was never the same staff each time you went so confusing and upsetting for elderly people. Come on Whiston, do some fine tuning, make the patients feel cared for, and improve the food, terrible compared to Newton. Its not only medicine that gets people better.

I actually went here by accident once, when I was trying to find which doctor's office my husband…read moreand I were supposed to register at since we were new in the area. This was the wrong one, and therefore I can't say much about the doctors. However, the staff that I saw were friendly, and the place was very clean and tidy. And there is also a pharmacy right next door which is very handy. I love the building as well. I think it may have been a church once. It's very ornate.

Alder Hey is a Children's Hospital, serving the North West. As a child lets just say i was a little…read moreaccident prone, so I had something of a season ticket to Alder Hey. Apart from the injuries themselves I have fond memories of the place. The staff were always very friendly, kind, caring and helpful. It was as if they couldn't do enough to help and make me better. Now as an adult I have returned to Alder Hey and the lovely atmosphere is still there. The staff are all lovely and seem to totally love their jobs. I have friends whose children have been inpatients or just visited clinics here, and they really cant praise the place enough. The main corridor is 1/4 mile long, but it is lined with murals and paintings on each of the 3 floors which makes it interesting, attractive and less scary for the visitors. This is a great hospital and I cant praise it enough.

Well despite all the organ storage trouble which has tarnished the name of Alder Hey over the last…read more10 years, this place has helped me live as normal a life as possible as a Haemophilia sufferer. In fact, it was a specialist Dr here that first diagnosed me as a sufferer after years of horrendous nose bleeds. I used to have to visit Alder Hey at least once a month for blood tests, and any time that I needed any dental work or operations, this was due to the fact that my blood couldn't clot properly and needed to be thickened before and during any treatment which I was at risk of bleeding throughout. I actually used to look forward to visiting here as the staff were always so friendly towards children, and the murals that decorate all the corridors used to fascinate me. This is a truly great children's hospital, unrivalled anywhere in the North of England!

I highly recommend this practice. Myself and my family have been patients here for a number of…read moreyears. We have practices that are closer to us but prefer to travel here as my closest clinic managed to lose our medics records and are horrendous. We tried Cavendish which is a short drive from our home but worth travelling a little further with the service they provide. I always manage to book an appointment for the day if I call at 0800hrs. When I make an appointment I will wait no longer than five minute to see the doctor or nurse. I get referred immediately with any issues I'm having. Also same for my seven year old daughter. Recently she got sent home from school due to UTI. I rang the practice at around midday to see her about arranging an appointment and she was seen the same day at 1530hrs. Also the staff and doctors had good bed side manner. Give this practice a go, you won't regret it.

This hospital has never changed name but quite recently has changed location quite a few times…read more Within the last month the hospital has moved to new premises just a few minutes away from there last hospital. As hospitals go its gorgeous - everything smells new and clean. Everything looks so modern and like theres a good chance it will work haha. The staff here are the staff from the other premises - all be it with new uniforms. The new building seems to have given everybody a bit of the feel good factor as it seems a happy place to be. Appointments always seem to be running to time as nobody ever seems fed up. There is a small chemist here and a big bonus to this local hospital is that it has a doctors surgery on site as well. Although newton seems a small place to have a hosptial such as it is now - it is very easy to get to as the local bus into st helens runs every ten to fifteen minutes.

There is no A&E here, the nearest one is Ysbyty Glan Clwyd at Bodelwyddan…read more I attended this hospital a few times for antenatal care and the midwives were all very good, but busy of course.
