I had a gastroscopy and colonoscopy today under Mr Alwahid's care at Glasgow's New Victoria Hospital. The Endoscopy unit staff (particularly Gillian Smith) and scope room staff were amazing: so friendly and caring. Really went the extra mile. Mr Alwahid was also lovely and did a great job to the degree that I was able to have both tests without sedation or pain relief (my choice). First class!
The only downside worth mentioning was that the appointment times were misleading: I was told when i booked the slot that my appointment was the time I'd get the tests, so to arrive early, but when i arrived I was told I was 5th on the list. However, this is a booking issue, and nothing to do with the Endoscopy staff (who actually took me early: thanks again!)
Hopefully I won't need these tests again, but I'd be happy to come back here for them if I did!
