"Such a relaxing place"

About: Maternity care / Day Obs Unit

(as the patient),

I have been going to the DOU clinic for a number of weeks to have my blood pressure monitored and every time I arrive at my appointment, I am met with friendly faces. The clinic is such a relaxing place and it honestly feels like the midwives/support staff care about how you’re feeling. They go out of their way to ensure you’re comfortable and will advocate for you. 

Special shout out to Wendy, Heidi & Lorraine!

Dear februarybm83,

Thank you for sharing your experience at DOU. I understand that pregnancy can be a time filled with concerns, especially regarding blood pressure checks. It's encouraging to hear that the staff provided a welcoming environment and addressed your questions thoughtfully. I'm pleased that you found DOU to be a relaxing setting during this important period.

I will ensure your feedback is shared with all the DOU midwives.

Many thanks

Laura
