"Service great, communications poor"

About: Ealing Hospital

I attended the hospital on the 30/12/20 for two skin biopsies.

The experience was first class, great doctor and nurse.

It is now 4 weeks later and I am trying to get the results.

I was told a letter had been sent, but it hasn't arrived .I called the dept. on a few occasions and finally got through. I was told I couldn't get my results over the phone, or text but an e mail may be possible. I offered to come in , but was told I couldn't because of Covid. I fully understand that the hospital is under pressure , but my results are sitting there, and all I am asking is to be told them .It won't take any time and will stop me worrying .I am now waiting for a new letter to be produced or potentially a call. It ridiculously time consuming for the staff and upsetting for me.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am so sorry to hear of this. How awful to have to be chasing around for this with no response.

Unfortunately we cannot identify you from your post or how to contact you.

Please can you contact the PALS team on 0208 869 5118 or LNWH-tr.PALS@nhs.net so that we can follow this up on your behalf. I have no doubt we can put you in contact with the right people and have your worries alleviated.

Kind regards,

Anjali Patel

Patient Experience Manager
