"I was treated with dignity throughout"

About: King's College Hospital (Denmark Hill) / Gynaecology

(as the patient),

I was referred via 2 week pathway to gynaecology due to post menopausal vaginal bleeding.

I was seen promptly by the consultant who was brilliant. I had 2 probe/scans one of which she was unable to complete due to me suffering severe pain.  Consultant was sensitive, professional throughout the whole process and very clearly explained the different processes as they occurred.

Consultant's findings were further checked by the Clinical Lead.

I was treated with dignity throughout which helped enormously to reduce my anxiety.

Dear @Pink78,

Thank you for sharing your story and your kind words! I wonder whether you would be happy for us to record your experience so that we could use it as a training tool with staff. If this is something that you would be interested in, would you mind dropping me an e-mail at patricia.mecinska@nhs.net?

Thank you!
