"My Midwife through my pregnancy"

About: Aberdeen Maternity Hospital / Obstetrics (Maternity care)

(as the patient),

I can not thank enough my Midwife I had through my pregnancy and aftercare, Mrs Skinner. She honestly, from day one, went above and beyond my expectations or previous experience I've had. As I am a single parent doing this alone, she was so supportive and even helped me and visited me when I was having health problems throughout my pregnancy. She checked on me and baby and to advocate for me as well when I wasn't understanding some of the hospital jargon they were using. I know she kept saying she was just doing her job. But you can clearly tell she loves her job and puts all her care into her work. And I honestly can't thank her enough for truly not just being my health professional but my Rock though this tough time I had with my pregnancy to delivery. Me and my wee boy will miss her terribly but we know she is away to attend to more pregnant women and give them the same care as I received. Honestly she is one in a million.

Congratulations on the birth of your baby boy and Thank you so much for taking the time to provide this feedback.

It is wonderful to hear that Jyll was able to support you in such a positive manner throughout your pregnancy and be an advocate for you.

I look forward to sharing this feedback with her as I know it will mean a lot.
