[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 527357"] Up until 2009, people in Fareham and Gosport attended Haslar Hospital. This was a military hospital staffed by military personnel and was considered an excellent hospital. There were no complaints, everybody was glad to be seen there. Things changed in 2009 when Haslar was closed, although massive petitions and marches were in vain to stop the closure. Some of it's personnel did secure temporary posts withjin Portsmouth Hospitals. You could tell the difference in staff who had been educated to a high nursing/caring standard and did the very best for their patients. People were always glad to be assigned to a Queen Alexandra nurse and military doctors. I have attended Portsmouth for a variety of reasons and would not recommend it to anyone. Posh new buildings, state of the art furniture and decor but there is no defining feature and care varies throughout the different departments. The population in Portsmouth and surrounding areas is too big for the departments and appointments take forever and can often be cancelled the day before via the telephone. Diabetes care within the catchment area is a postcode lottery, some surgeries strive to give diabetics excellent care, Type1s receive hospital care and education is used for Type 2s , including test strips whereas others give the obligatory leaflets and a "see you in three months" scenarios.
