Translating research into patient care
What our patients say about us
Relative from Austwick, North Yorkshire
"I are writing to say how grateful I am for the dedicated care and professionalism that my wife has received over the last five years from Dr Ann Cuthbert and her team in HODU. Not only is Dr Cuthbert a first class consultant but she also runs an excellent department. The HODU team are always friendly and cheerful as well as skilled in their work. The confidence they instill to help one tackle difficult drug treatments is inspiring."
Patient from Skipton, North Yorkshire
"Following a road traffic accident, I would like to comment all the members of staff who were involved in stabilising me. The professionalism exhibited by everyone concerned, from the moment the ambulance crew pushed me through the doors of A and E, to the one to one nursing on ICU/HDU and finally the after care on ward 14, was nothing short of exemplary."
Patient from Crosshills, West Yorkshire
"As a strict vegetarian all my life I get the best choice from the super cooks down in the kitchens, the wonderful food they cook. Once again thank you and keep up the good work."
Outpatient from Leeds, West Yorkshire
"I am a retired GP and (a relative) was recently in ward 6. I consider that her café was exemplary. The nursing staff were really kind and kept us fully informed throughout. The way that the Doctor dealt with the situation was also excellent and I have nothing but praise for the whole system. I have spoken to a number of people who have also been inpatients and their experiences in different departments mirrored ours.
I have recently been an outpatient at Airedale Hospital and would like to pass on my thanks for the very helpful, professional and thoughtful staff you have there. The receptionist in cardiology was extremely efficient when it came to organising some tests I had to have and when she said she would phone if an earlier date came up she did just that! I’m sure many like to complain about our health service but I certainly had the best service I could have had."
