"I used the choose and book system ..."

About: Dewsbury & District Hospital

(as the patient),

What I liked

I used the choose and book system for an audiology appointment which was very efficient. I was only waiting a few minutes to be seen and the test was explained thoroughly beforehand as were the results afterwards.

What could be improved

The appointment letter sent out to me had a map on the back which did not show the audiology department. On arrival at the hospital (16:30) there was no one at the help desk to ask directions. I had to queue at the shop to ask if there was anyone at the help desk. I was told they'd gone home, but that I should ask the volunteers at the shop as they would know. Clear maps which mark all the departments would be helpful.

We are currently reviewing appointment letters and will be updating the maps. Thanks for the feedback
