"CT scan for cancer of Kidney"

About: Airedale General Hospital / Urology

After the lovely ladies of the Radiology Department worked hard and showing great professionalism in caring out the CT scan. The report of the CT scan was completed in a week by the Radiology Department. The hospital is greatly let down by their Urology department. However, the consultant still has not signed the report that is sat on his desk as according to his sectary. So now I can see why the CQC has given the hospital a REQUIRES IMPROVEMENT report, CQC report requires improvement in SAFETY and BEING WELL-LED. I was referred for a CT scan regarding a possible cancer case of the Kidney. NHS guidelines states 10 days as the target, I am at day 21 and still non the wiser!!! If no information is given quickly then I will also be filling a complaint to the CQC.

We are pleased to hear that your experience in our radiology department was positive, and that you found the staff to be professional. Sadly you do raise concerns regarding the length of time it has taken for you to receive the results of your CT scan. We would like the opportunity to discuss this with you in greater detail, and would encourage you to contact our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) on 01535 294019.
