Whittington Hospital

This was a pleasant surprise!
When I’m feeling poorly, I want to get in and out of hospital as fast as possible. This place might have a nice canteen and a well-​stocked shop as other reviewers have mentioned… but the most important thing (for me) is to let poorly folks escape as soon as they can!
Anyway…I had to come to Whittington for a chest x-​ray and blood tests. I’d never been here before, but there were helpful staff at reception to point me in the right direction.
X-​ray time:
— I had a note from my doctor, so I managed to register in less than 5 minutes.
— They gave me a buzzer, so I could take a seat by their huge windows and look down to the shard and London skyline.
— The buzzer went off in just a few minutes
— Next I had to wait outside the x-​ray rooms… this was less than 5 minutes as well…
— The staff were friendly, but speedy (and I exited out of a different door after changing out of my robe… so the whole process was really streamlined.)
Blood test time:
— This time I just had to take a ticket (at 10:30am I was 10^th in line.)
— They had so many staff in each of the rooms, that even this was less than 15 minutes wait.
— The staff here were friendly and chatty too (although they were also speedy stars)
This meant I was out of hospital within an hour, even though I didn’t have appointments in advance. Amazing.
Other than that, they have friendly reception staff *gasps*, friendly and efficient nurses… and the whole place seems new and clean.

this hospital has changed for the better, its alot cleaner and nicer. staff are friendly and helpful, since the new block has been added it is much easier to find your way around and also has a canteen where u an enjoy lovely food. theres a shop on the grounds also where u can buy things for patients.

This is a great modern hospital, especially after it was refurbished and a new entrance was put in. It looks more flashy and also looks more hygienic. There are lifts, Escalators, glass walls, new concierge, New seating areas and new everything. There are shops, Food halls and the hospital is soo easy to get around. The staff around the hospital are so friendly and are always willing to help you.

Most impressed by the staff and hospital grounds. They have volunteer guides to help get around. The sitting areas were not cramped. Apart from the good natured doctors and staff, I find most impressive was in fact their food hall, providing fairly priced and great food. No wonder the hall’s always full!
