"My Day Surgery Operation"

It had been decades since my last operation and I was a little apprehensive as I had previously experienced severe vomiting after my last general anaesthetic. However, I was welcomed into the Day Surgery Unit where everything was explained to me. Every member of staff was friendly, cheerful and professional and it was clear to me during my stay that they were all committed to providing the best patient care possible. There was a patient in the next cubicle who was very anxious and the staff spent time with them to calm  them and make her comfortable. My operation went well and my post operative care was excellent. The surgeon rang me at home the next day to check on me and to explain that he would be writing to my GP. The whole experience was a very positive one and has reinforced my respect for the nurses, doctors and hospital staff at St Mary's. A big thank you to you all.
