"Caring professionals"

About: New Stobhill Hospital / Gynaecology Clinic

(as the patient),

From entering to exiting Clinic F, at New Stobhill Hospital, I experienced professionalism, patience, kindness, understanding and respect. 

At my appointment, Dr Khaund quickly relieved my own anxieties. To have medical professionals really listen to you, provide clear explanations and take your concerns on board, whilst finding an appropriate way forward in terms of investigations, was very much appreciated. Her openness, care, professionalism and expertise made my visit more than manageable. 

With your appointment letter, you should receive an information booklet to help you prepare for your visit. It includes information on tests/procedures, why they might be required and what you can do to prepare in advance. With this advance info/advice on procedures, Dr Khaund is clearly doing what she can to minimise the fears/anxieties many women have about attending and alleviate the potential pain/discomfort some procedures may bring.

Thank you Dr Khaund’s team of Kayleigh and her colleague. You both put me at ease with your professionalism, reassurance, kindness, care and appropriate gentle good humour. It made all the difference.

I had a more than three month wait (from date of my GP referral as a result of post-menopausal spotting), to be seen at Clinic F.  Obviously our NHS is facing enormous challenges and a considerable backlog of appointments. In addition to the worry this causes patients, it really must pile on the stress for clinic staff. It cannot be easy to work under such pressure. It is comforting to know that caring professionals in the NHS continue to be there for patients and maintain the struggle to provide these much-needed services. Thank you.

Dear FMM2025,

Thank you so much for spending the time to offer your feedback on your experience of our wonderful Clinic F team.

I am delighted to hear you found your experience was filled with professionalism, patience, kindness, understanding and respect.

Dr Khaund will be pleased you found that she provided clear explanations and took your concerns on board, whilst finding an appropriate way forward in terms of investigations. It is reassuring that you appreciated this. It is good to hear her openness, care, professionalism and expertise made your visit more than manageable.

The care delivered by Kayleigh and the team is what we strive for in our outpatient settings - putting you at ease with their professionalism, reassurance, kindness, care and appropriate gentle good humour. It really does make a difference to our patients as you have clarified.

It is kind of you to comment that you found the team to be caring professionals within the NHS who continue to be there for our patients and maintain the struggle to provide these much-needed services despite the waiting times being longer than we would like.

I will be sure to share this with Dr Khaund, Kayleigh and the Clinic F team.

I wish you well in the future.

Kind regards,

Nikki
