I  had an OGD and colonoscopy done at STH.  My doctor was  Dr Murphy.  I was so nervous and anxious about   the procedure and having to go into hospital . 
 As soon as I checked in I was greeted by friendly reception staff.  Then greeted by fabulous nurses who put me at ease.  Nurse Lynn and Jissny were fabulous at taking away any anxiety I had.    They explained the procedure and went through every step of what would happen. 
 When in the procedure room  I was introduced  to all the staff and DR. I was instantly put at ease with the professionalism of the staff,  their empathy was  on a different level. They kept me calm and chatted away  throughout the procedure Lynn was so understanding  of my fears and held my hand when needed.
I must admit I felt extremely   safe in the hands of the nurses. Dr Murphy was so understanding and never rushed me he took his time with me and reassured me I would be ok.  He was a gentleman and very professional and even had a laugh with me.
