Ipswich Hospital (Part of the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust)


Generally very happy

My daughter suffered from continuous ear infections. My only concern was that the GP's should have referred to the consultant sooner as the high number of perforations has left her hearing permanently unpaired. Once "in the system" the overall care was good. We hardly ever saw the same hospital Dr twice though more continuity would have helped.
