Professional but upbeat and confident

"Professional but upbeat and confident"

About: St John's Hospital / Medical Day Unit Western General Hospital / Gastroenterology Outpatients

(as a service user),

Living with Colitis is a terrible chronic illness but I am fortunate enough to now, thanks to the NHS and my consultant, be on an infusion that is keeping my symptoms at bay.  It was not an easy journey but my consultants persistence, empathy and support has got me in a place where life is worth living again.  

I also enjoy my regular visit for my infusion, the team in the medical day unit are professional but upbeat and confident - shout out to David, Gillian and Claire
