"I was really impressed"

About: Stoke Mandeville Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

Just wanted to give some love to the Same Day Emergency Care team at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, which I visited yesterday.

Staff were super friendly and helpful, and the nurses I encountered at the DVT clinic (sorry, forgotten their names!) were lovely, upbeat and funny, in what I know is a very busy, high pressure environment.

I imagine they have to deal with a lot of stressed people who are annoyed at having to wait, but they were a joy to deal with. Sitting in the waiting area, I watched so many hospital staff being absolute gems with patients, being super friendly, patient and incredibly respectful, when I'm sure they were exhausted themselves. 

I certainly couldn't do that job, I was really impressed.
