"Your support is much appreciated"

About: Community Services (Adult Physical Health) / Cardiac Rehabilitation Physiotherapy

(as the patient),

After suffering from a heart attack in February 2025 I was invited to take part in cardio fitness session at the dome in Doncaster, my first session was a check to see my physical abilities, consisting of a bleep test under constant monitoring of my heart rate and BP.

After this session I have been going every week on a Thursday to a mini circuit session. The team that run the session are fantastic very friendly and always giving you support. They are very knowledgeable in their field any questions or concerns you had they could answer them and help. I think joining this session have helped in my recovery, talking to some of the others in the session and have a bit of banter.

The cardio team are a fantastic asset, keep it up. Your support is much appreciated.
