I was visiting Lincoln from my home in the Midlands and became ill during the afternoon due to a problem passing urine, I attended at around 5pm, accompanied by my wife.
After registration I was assessed and a while later treated by a nurse and a doctor who spent a hour looking after me, I was in terrible pain and, I know, making some noise for which I apologised. They treated me with the greatest care and respect, when they managed to make the pain subside I could not say how grateful I was.
Later I was treated by a second nurse who also showed the same skills.
It is obvious that, like much of the NHS, there is some shortage of finance at Lincoln, broken seats in the waiting area and staff searching for equipment in short supply but your staff there are absolutely wonderful, they work very hard with great compassion, care and respect.
It wasn't a good experience but I knew I was in good hands.
Thank you so much!
