"Confirming an appointment"

About: Scunthorpe General Hospital

My father has been asked to confirm his cataract appointment to the ENT department at Scunthorpe hospital However every time he rings he is put in a long queue and is kept waiting until he just gives up. Could you not provide an e-mail service to confirm/cancel/rearrange an appointment. There must be a more efficicent way to deal with the above type of calls.

Hello, thank you for your comments, which have been shared with the general manager for this department. Unfortunately we've been experiencing some problems with the phones - if it happens again, please could you notify our Patient Advice and Liaison Service on 01724 290132 or by email on nlg-tr.PALS@nhs.net Best wishes Sarah Mainprize
