I was in the Victoria Hospital at the beginning of Aug 2024 due to me having a radical hysterectomy due to me having a cervical cancer.. I cannot thank the nurses at the day intervention unit , surgery staff , nurses and especially the gynaecology ward in Kirkcaldy hospital, especially wee Hannah who was a uni student she was absolutely amazing and made me feel so much better .
Every single doctor and nurse I just want to thank you for looking after me
