I have nothing but praise for the BGH.
It was spotlessly clean, the food was very good, fresh and tasty, and all the staff were kind and competent, and did everything cheerfully.
Having a procedure was fully explained and therefore less frightening. I am 90 but there isn't any ageism in the BGH! We are lucky that the BGH is our local hospital.
