"Well done"

About: Kingston Hospital / Cardiology

At a time when there is so much negative publicity about the NHS I would like to say well done to my GP and Kingston Hospital. On Wednesday evening I booked an appointment with my GP for Friday morning. I left my GP at approx 9.50 arriving at Kingston Hospital at approx 10.30. I went to Cardiology, hardly had I sat down before I was having an ECG, on to Xray. Within five minutes I was having my Xrays and was out of the hospital by about 11.20 remarkable when hearing of queues hours long for A and E. Friendly, efficient staff and a nice environment

Two questions As a man why do I need a hospital gown for a chest Xray, could have kept my shirt on? Three men at the same time were changing into gowns for chest xrays. How much could you save on laundry bills if you cut down their use, offer them to men by all means. Some men may feel they need/want one, I would say most men would happily decline, removing shirt when having the Xray. Secondly why is there no facility on the Kingston website to say well done, or if there is I could not find it!
