"All the staff are a credit"

About: Dr Gray's Hospital / Day Case Unit Dr Gray's Hospital / General Surgery

(as the patient),

I attended the day case unit in Dr Grays early July to have my gallbladder removed. I suffered a few post op complications which meant I then had to be moved to Ward 5 for an overnight stay as well. 

All staff involved in my care were fabulous, particularly nurse Di in day case, and nurse Stewart in Ward 5, who provided friendly, reassuring care to me and made sure I was as comfortable as could be, despite the pain and vomiting I was suffering. 

As a health care professional myself, I knew they were all extremely busy behind the scenes, but always made me feel well supported. 

All staff at Dr Grays are a credit to the NHS and much appreciated.

Hello AshleyR

Thank you for taking the time to send us such lovely feedback. I am sorry to hear you were unwell post-operatively but hopefully you are feeling much better now.

I have shared your compliment with both daycase and ward 5 staff. Its always nice for the staff to hear how reassured they make people feel during their stay.

Thank you again for letting us know, Lesley.
