"The care was impeccable"

Recently I was scheduled to have prolapse surgery. Dr Anderson was the surgeon preforming the surgery.

Upon arrival, I was greeted by the staff nurses. Right away they put me at ease. This was the first time in my life that I have ever went under any type of surgery. I had not realised at the time I would be staying over night. It was not made clear on my admission letter. So I was a little shocked when I was told that I would be in overnight.

The nurses assured me that I would be well taken care of, even though I was filled with anxiety about the surgery. Emma the anaesthesiologist put me so at ease and I really wish I could remember her assistants' names. So I apologise for not remembering.

After the surgery, in the recovery unit, I was again put at ease that the surgery went well. Once back in the overnight care unit. I was again cared for by the nurses. Lyndsey and Judith were fantastic. Really all those ladies were amazing, again I wish I could remember everyone's name.

I can’t tell you how nervous I was about the surgery and to be cared for this way was the healing balm I needed.

I just want to say a big thank you to Dr Anderson and all the nurses who were there that day & night. The care was impeccable and the support was deeply felt.

Thank you x
