These features all make Stamford a superb A&E to end up in. Extremely knowledgable and experienced staff keep waiting times to almost nothing, and have earned the hospital much respect from the local community. If you break your arm anywhere near Stamford, aim to end up here rather than Peterborough District Hospitals (or other local hospitals), where waiting times are likely to be much longer.

It seems strange to be reviewing a hospital, but since I had a minor eye operation today I thought…read moreI might as well comment. I had excellent service from start to finish and from leaving my home at 2.45 and being back indoors by 4.05pm it does indicate a good level of efficiency and minimal waiting time. I was really well cared for, name tagged, and being introduced by name to each member of staff and having the procedures explained to me throughout. My personal belongings were looked after until my treatment was over, then I was given tea and biscuits and finally given further information including emergency phone numbers to cover 24 hours should I become concerned about anything. I'm pretty certain that I would not have had such attentive treatment if I had been attending my old hospital in London, so I'm pleased that this hospital is being rebuilt and therefore less likely to disappear in the near future. On my previous visits this year I found staff equally friendly and any waiting times had been at an acceptable level. So I think the place deserves it's 5 stars.

This hospital is poor. When my mother was I'll she saw a different docotor every few hours and they…read morewere very inconsistent! Each one kept saying something completely different. The doctors also struggled to take blood successfully. Similar things happened when my grandma stayed in hull royal a few years ago, it's like the staff didn't care! Some of the staff are brill but others are just very stuck up. The a&e service is good though and I have to say that the maternity ward and the staff there are the best thing about the hospital, but if your ill avoid this hospital like the plague, especially if you need any surgery. I know someone who had surgery and got infected and had to spend weeks in hospital and is still on agony to this day.

Despite the staff being overstretched they tried to help as much as they could, not only with medical help but also emotional support. Definitely deserve more credit than the media gives them
