"A wonderful team treating my daughter"

About: Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary / Paediatrics Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary / Urology

(as a relative),

My 6 year old daughter has recently been treated for a UTI in ward 15 of Dumfries Royal infirmary. Staff from cleaners and porters right through to the consultants were absolutely fantastic. Nurses were all friendly, bubbly and welcoming. Doctors were thorough and more than happy to discuss their thoughts and treatment plans and answer any questions I had regarding her condition.

My only complaint would be the delay in getting sensitivities back from the lab which I know was frustrating staff as much as me as it did delay getting getting my daughter on the most suitable antibiotic.

I'm pleased to say my daughter is on her way to recovery now and we can't thank everyone on ward 15 enough for making her time in hospital as comfortable as possible. A wonderful team of professionals.

Dear Blackbirdcq58,

Thank you for taking the time to share your story with us. I am pleased to hear that you and your daughter had such a positive experience in Ward 15 and I know the staff will be very touched by your comments.

I can appreciate that the delays must have been frustrating. I will feed that back to the relevant team along with your other comments so we can consider whether there is anything we can do to improve that process.

Thanks again for sharing your experience and kind comments. I am pleased to hear your daughter is recovering well.


Kindest regards

Emma Murphy
