"Extremely professional"

About: General practices in Tayside

(as the patient),

I had occasion to use my local GP Practice (Tayview Medical Practice) following surgery for Dupuytren's Contracture on my hand. My surgery has necessitated frequent dressings on my hand to prevent infection and aid healing.

I have been treated throughout by the practice nurse Gail (I hope that's the correct spelling) and she has been an absolute credit to her profession and the NHS in general. 

On each occasion Gail has been extremely professional coupled with a warm and caring nature and has answered any questions I had promptly and in an easy to understand fashion.

I still have a few weeks before my recovery is complete but cannot praise Gail highly enough for all her help.

Dear Jim1705

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about Gail's professionalism and caring nature at your recent appointments at Tayview Medical Practice. Feedback is very valuable to all areas of the NHS, and I'm sure both the staff as a whole at Tayview, and Gail herself will be delighted to hear that your experience there has been positive. As GP practices are independent businesses, we would recommend that you feedback your experience directly to the practice to allow this to be passed on to the staff. The Practice Manager can give you with details of how to provide this feedback to them, as per their Complaints and Feedback Policy.

I hope you are recovering well following your hand surgery.

With best wishes

Victoria Sullivan
