The NHS gets a lot of stick. However, the good stories often get missed. I want to share a great experience I had with the NHS, through my local GP Surgery.
I’d been feeling lightheaded and had stomach pains. Called in the morning, appointment made to see the practice nurse. My appointment was with Nurse Glassford. She was great, really kind, and thorough with her questions and investigations. She took my blood pressure and ensured I booked in to have a follow-up appointment for bloods to be taken and to hand in a urine and stool samples.
After my appointment, I went to the practice reception to book an appointment for bloods to be taken and was able to book in right away for an appointment with Shona. I’ve had blood taken before and it’s often painful. Shona took my blood and I swear it was painless. If you’re worried about needles or blood taken, ask for Shona.
All in all, a very thorough, quick and efficient service, from excellent experienced staff.
"Great, speedy, painless service from experienced practitioners"
