A great NHS experience

Posted By chris75

"A great NHS experience"

About: Outpatients Centre / Dermatology

(as the patient),

I had a minor day surgery at Forth Valley Hospital in Larbert,to remove a skin lesion.

There's is something a wee bit unnerving about having a lump cut out of your arm but the whole experience couldn't have been better.

I was called from the waiting room exactly on time, Kirsty and Laura were very friendly and put me at ease throughout.

The whole procedure was explained very clearly and I also didn't feel a thing. The whole experience couldn't have been better.

Hi chris75,

Thank you for leaving feedback and I will make sure its shared with the team.

It is reassuring to hear that your experience was a positive one, it can be an anxious time coming into hospital for a procedure.

I hope your wound is healing well.

Thanks again,

Kirsty
