My daughter recently attended UHL for a procedure on a Monday. We were delighted to receive a cancellation on the Thursday previous for the operation. On arrival the woman in the admissions office was pleasant, helpful and upbeat. The nurses on the Rainbow ward were kind, attentive and very caring. The atmosphere was very relaxed and calm. We were lucky to meet the consultant and his team on three occasions all of which I couldn't praise enough. (We were public). They were so geared towards making it as relaxed and calm as possible and explained everything perfectly. The nurses and theatre team were amazing!! They really tried to explain everything in a lighthearted manner while also reassuring us the anxious parents!! My daughter said she also met a lovely nurse in recovery who I am very grateful to. All I can say in a time of hard times in nursing and medicine is congratulations on this amazing team. The food, cleanliness, staff, security, facilities for kids I cannot fault. I cannot thank ye enough.

I had a terrible pain and went to the hospital at around 9:30. The children in the waiting room where just for minor things like a broken arm etc so it was not that busy, we where seen in 15 mins to triage. I was not able to eat or drink due to the pain, I had my blood sugar taken and it was ok, my blood pressure was a bit high due to the pain I was in. I was seen by a doctor 20 minutes after triage I was seen and I was asked the regular question my bloods where taken, ekg and a urine sample they all can back normal. The doctor called in a specialist, they gave my countless medications but nothing worked I was then admitted and put on an IV. I was waiting in a cubical in the cast room for hours until I got a bed on the ward, I then started throwing up and couldn't keep anything down even though I hadn't eaten or drunken anything so i was on IV fluids and medication for the time I stayed at Crumlin. The staff are so friendly and kind to the patients. I love Crumlin and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Efficiently processed through A&E with doctors referral letter. All staff were courteous and helpful and pleasant and mannerly. The whole process of tests etc was explained well and every stage of diagnosis was well organised. Admitted overnight and was moved with no problem to a ward with helpful staff - the porters and the ward staff.

Wonderful staff. Tremendous care. Filthy hospital. Disgusting food.

I called to A and E at about ten am and was told I had pneumonia but there were no beds available so they couldn\'t treat me. I went to my GP who,rushed me by ambulance to Beaumont where I was treated with respect and had a bed on a ward by six o\'clock that night, hooked up to antibiotic for pneumonia and steroids to help. Why was I let go from the Hermitage?.. How can they have no beds available?....

The care in enhanced recovery was fantastic. Before my surgery, I had a full work up and the staff were fantastic

My brother attended OPD with a serious injury, was told to return next week. He's in a lot of pain and when he asked about meds for the pain, he was refused. Unbelievable....

I would like to thank all the staff of the endoscopy ward for the outstanding care I received. I was made to feel at ease from the get go due to the friendly nursing staff and doctors who looked after me.

The hospital was so dirty.

Was referred by doctor on call to come into A&E straight away, he even wanted to send an ambulance for me, as my chest infection was getting worse even though I was already on two antibiotics (I am also asthmatic and that was my 4th chest infection this year). I could barely speak and walk due to being so out of breath, I also had tightness in my chest and throat. The doctor who saw me took bloods and X-ray and ended up giving me steroids, which my GP has forbidden me from taking due to my acute renal failure history. I told this to the doctor but he had none of it. I also had to take out the cannula myself as no one was really bothered about it. Next time I will go to another hospital.

Wonderful care given to my six year old son after falling and sustaining an injury to his knee. Very helpful and very patient and caring staff. So helpful and explained all to my son and me so well. Brilliant care and so appreciated.

The water protesters would be better spending their time marching for better pay and conditions for nurses and doctors...Wexford Hospital is 100%.

I find this hospital a disgrace. My relative is currently a patient and his family is currently doing shifts in the hospital to keep an eye on him. I am taking this matter further until he gets the treatment he deserves.

My wife had a missed miscarriage and a D&C was performed today. She had already been scanned and treated by staff in the EPU who were absolutely fantastic. Dr Mohammed is simply a wonderful man and we could not say enough positive things about the man. All the nurses and staff in the Gyne ward were just lovely - so helpful and kind. They could not have done more despite being ran off their feet. It was a first pregnancy and was hard and upsetting. However, the service of excellence we received and the kindness shown made it so much easier. From the bottom of our hearts thank you most sincerely.

My wife attended the A&E department at 8.20pm and was not seen by a doctor until 3am who took blood tests.The results did not come back till 6am. Myself and my wife were sitting in A&E with patients who were injured and bleeding. In the meantime, two people who were escorted in by Gardaí were seen to straight away. We had to go back the following morning at 9.30am and waited for a doctor until 4pm and were told none was available. My wife needed a scan on her leg and was told to come back the following day as they were too busy. We went back on the Friday at 2pm and got the scan at 2.15 pm. We were told by the radiogopher that it looked clear but a doctor had to review it. Three hours later, no doctor had reviewed it. We left the hospital then and left my wife's phone number. We have still not received a call to say if everything is okay five days later. This hospital should be closed down.

I was extremely disappointed with the lack of information I was given post-op and also felt that the nurses were very business like and did not seem very caring, which is unlike any previous hospital experience I've ever had.

I was really ill after my procedure but nurse ignored me and gave preferential treatment to someone who did not need it.

I injured my foot in 2010 and every time I tried to get a diagnosis, was x-rayed and told it was probably an inflammation. I have suffered much pain and loss of work opportunities and finally had to suggest to a doctor that they should maybe try an actual diagnosis. Waited nine months for and MRI and now it seems they had me walking around on a broken foot all this time. They refused to do an MRI and kept just doing x-rays although nothing showed up. Neither my discomfort in walking nor my wish to have this injury diagnosed and treated were taken seriously. Very Dissppointing.

The nurses were very unhelpful and lazy. There were two nurses that were very good and had to carry the rest of them. My wife had a C-section and got no help on her first night with the baby saying they were short staffed. It's a disgrace after having major surgery having to look after a newborn with drips and a catheter fitted to her. I would have stayed and helped if I was allowed! It was like something out of the the dark ages and VHI give 900.00 a night for this. Also her medication was never given on time and we had to keep asking for it.

I was pregnant and unsure of my dates. I was initially seen by Dr Mohammed and then the staff in the Early Pregnancy Unit. Unfortunately the pregnancy did not progress and resulted in a missed miscarriage. We were so devastated and it was a first pregnancy so there was anxiety and the fear of the unknown. The staff in the EPU were second to none, they were so kind and caring. Nurse Elaine McGrath was just so wonderful to us. Dr Mohammed is an utter gentleman with a lovely and gentle manner, I can not praise him enough. He was so lovely and I trusted him and felt confident and at ease with him. I had my D&C today and each and every member of staff were so lovely to me and my husband. The nurses on the Gyne ward were angels. And again Dr Mohammed put us so at ease. Thank you all so very much for making a difficult situation so much easier. You are all not half recognised for all you do. I am so very grateful.

Horrendous experience from start to finish. Was admitted early and left for three days because no one could get me a scan. Was not seen by my consultant once in that time even as he passed me to see other patients in the ward. Three failed attempts were made to give me an epidural during labour and after hours of screaming and begging for help I was rushed to the operating theatre for a section. Thankfully I did not need a section and was able to push baby out myself after a spinal tap. Post labour was just as bad, left on the bag for over 24 hours. IV drip left on me unchecked for hours. Breastfeeding interrupted to give baby bath and then told couldn't be done on arrival to the room as he was on IV also. Absolutely third world treatment, was shocked and appalled by it and dread the day I may have to return for another birth.

Terrible place; no privacy, dignity, no sense of safety even....Over-crowded, everything discussed within earshot of others...Horrific

I spent 11 hrs in the A&E during which time I had blood tests, X-rays, examined by four doctors, prescribed drugs and released. Good result.

Lovely hospital.

The doctor was asked to contact us with regard to some queries we had and never did so. We are extremely disappointed and wouldn't seek his services again for ourselves or other relatives, friends etc...

March 2016 in A&E was the worst experience of my life.

Reception staff have a very negative attitude and even when questions are asked, they reply very rudely. I feel they are the main cause of spoiling the reputation of the Mater.

Very poor care, very bad experience.

Was very happy with the care I received and will be going again in September for the same procedure.

Would recommend this hospital, I received first class care.
