"Emergency Surgery"

About: Craigavon Area Hospital / Ambulatory Care- Surgical Craigavon Area Hospital / Emergency Department

(as a service user),

I had became quite ill at home with unexplained pain and had avoided getting seen for a few days. 

After severe abdominal pain I went to the A&E department at Craigavon area hospital. Whilst under extreme pressure the doctors, nurses, surgeons and staff have went above and beyond not only for myself but in any other patient they interacted with. 

These people are modern day superhero’s and should have the praises sung at every opportunity.

I only pray that they can get more resources and staff

They save lives every single day, these people should be supported with everything we have. 

Maybe you might not see this. NHS THANK YOU, you saved my life. I get to home to 2 children and a fiancé.
