About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Ambulatory Care

(as a service user),

I attended Forth Valley Ambulatory Care Unit in Larbert today to have 3 sebaceous cysts surgically removed. 

Prior to attending, I had been was quite nervous about the prospect of the procedure  - however, any fears were speedily allayed.
I was taken within 5 minutes of my appointment time. 
I then had the absolute pleasure of David, Susan and trainee Teah's company for the following hour or so. 
After the initial numerous local anaesthetic injections - the remainder of the surgery (conducted by a very cheery David) was extremely comfortable and pain-free.
David, Susan and Teah all instantly put me at ease - some of David's jokes aside.......  :-)  - and thereafter, they were great company for the time I was there - which totally flew in.
These guys are a credit to the hospital and to your organisation and I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us such positive feedback.

Sorry about the delay in replying ( I've been gadding about on holiday for two weeks )

It is lovely to hear you appreciated the team effort, we all try our best...and what's wrong with my jokes???!!!:)

Hopefully everything has healed well and you didn't feel too uncomfortable when the anaesthetic wore off.

Thanks again

David
