After speaking to the local pharmacist on Sunday I was advised to go to the hospital. From entering the hospital at Minor Injuries I was treated quickly with kindness and consideration. At no time was I made to I was wasting anyone's time although all I presented with was a really heavy cold. As I was due to start radiotherapy on returning home I just needed reassurance it was not turning into a chest infection. All the staff were polite, kind and very reassuring and so easy to talk to. The unit was bright clean and comfortable and I congratulate you and the staff for the running of the department so well. Why are there not more of these smaller but we'll run units, they could take a lesson from you.
Thanking you all again so much, recovered well and travel home on Saturday after a lovely week, fit and well for treatment.
