Sent to A&E by GP after I was worried my son had appendicitis (he did)! A&E and all theatre staff were amazing, swift investigations and treatment from everyone involved. Special thanks to Heather (A&E CSW) and Paul (ODP) for their reassuring words and distractions - my son is autistic and they couldn’t have handled him better if they tried! Big thanks also to the surgical registrars and anaesthetists (can’t remember names) the whole team were truly fantastic.
He is now recuperating on the ward (minus his appendix)
"The whole team were truly fantastic."
