About: Selly Oak Hospital (Acute)

(as the patient),

What I liked

most of the staff were friendly and helpful

What could be improved

i broke a bone in my foot and was sent to the xray department., which seemed a long way away from the clinic. i was left to get there myself on crutches. was almost crying as i could hardly walk. then had to get back to clinic. almost fell over. it took all my energy. staff walked past me and took no notice. i felt really upset.
