"A textbook example of how patients like to be treated"

About: Braid Valley Hospital and Ballymena Health and Care Centre / Skin Clinic (Dermatology)

(as a relative),

I recently took my mother - who is in her 80s - for a  Dermatology appointment at the Braid Valley.

Dr Austen was just lovely with her. My mother is hard of hearing and Dr Austen spoke slowly and clearly and explained everything that she was doing. She was warm and empathetic with excellent communication skills.

As I said to Dr Austen on the way out, it was a textbook example of how patients like to be treated.

Dear Grafefuldaughter1862

My name is Donna Hanna and I am the Clinical Services Manager for Dermatology in the NHSCT.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feed back on your Mother's experience at her Dermatology appointment in the Braid Valley. I am delighted that she had a good experience.

I will ensure that Dr. Austen receives a copy of your feedback. I know she will be very pleased with the lovely feedback from the appointment.

Thank you and I hope your Mother is doing well following her appointment.

Regards

Donna
