"Incredible group of people"

About: Royal Cornwall Hospital (Treliske) / General surgery

(as the patient),

I could write a book about my recent experiences at Treliske but I will attempt to keep it short! After my surgery, I spent the next 24 hours in EPOC where I have never been cared for so attentively in any past hospital stay anywhere! Kim, Iris, and Lily were so kind. Just what someone needs coming from major operation. I hated to leave them for Wheal Coates ward but upon arriving there, although so many more to care for, Eliza, Sarah, DJ, Tamara, and Taryn (please forgive me if I have the spelled incorrectly) were equally spot on with seeing to my every need. Even the gentleman providing cups of tea and the people keeping everything clean and tidy. Kudos to each and every one of you!

No one wants to be in hospital but this incredible group of people made it so much more bearable!

And, Ms Barnes, brilliant surgeon!

Thanks to each of you for what you do.
