Really helped my moving and walking

"Really helped my moving and walking"

About: Borders General Hospital / Physiotherapy

(as a service user),

I recently received physio as an outpatient from Jenny, Physiotherapist in Borders General Hospital.

During this time the care I received has really helped my moving and walking.

Doing what Jenny has recommended and the exercises she has given me  have helped a great deal in my recovery.

At one point, I had a viral infection which led me to require to re-schedule my apt. 

As I have Multiple Sclerosis she wrote to the MS Nurse and I have  no doubt this enabled me to having a consultation with my Consultant and the MS Nurse.

I must say all staff at BGH have been very friendly and helpful. I have always been treated with respect and as an ex nurse and midwife formally working elsewhere, you could teach them a thing or two!
