"Kind NHS staff going over and above"

About: New Victoria Hospital / Health Records

(as a service user),

I was recently trying to contact a particular NHS GGC clinic but struggling with getting through despite switchboard attempting different numbers for me.  I looked online in the hope I could find an alternative number that might work.  I found a number for clinic A at the New Victoria Hospital (Glasgow) and spoke to Frances.  I explained the situation and Frances was so kind and helpful, despite it not being her department she took the time to try and locate a number for me.  We finished the call and a short while later Frances called again to say she had found another number which was going to be the right one!  I was so touched by this gesture and the help and care shown by Frances when she must have been so busy with her own work.  It’s amazing, people like Frances that make the NHS and touch the hearts of many.  Thank you and keep up the wonderful work that you do.

Dear SKM

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It is lovely to read about how Frances was able to help you find the appropriate contact number. I agree that it’s people like Frances that make the NHS and highlights how small things can make such a difference to people. I will share this feedback with Frances, and I’m sure she will really appreciate your comments.

Best wishes

Nicole
