"Extremely appreciative"

About: Gartnavel General Hospital / Xrays and Scans

(as a service user),

I recently attended the Radiotherapy Department at Gartnavel Hospital for a scheduled MRI scan. As I am highly claustrophobic, I found the prospect of this to be potentially distressing. However, due to the care and support provided by Pamela, Daniel and Lorraine, I was able to undergo this procedure with considerably less anxiety than I had anticipated. Pamela in particular took the time to fully explain the process involved in obtaining the scan and was able to provide me with the necessary reassurance which I required. Pamela and her team consequently demonstrated a level of care and understanding which I believe should be highly commended. I am extremely appreciative of their efforts in this regard.

Dear Benmac

Thank you for your lovely comments in regards to your recent appointment at the Radiotherapy Department at the Gartnavel General Hospital.

I was pleased to hear you were made to feel at ease and reassured by our staff especially Pamela, Daniel and Lorraine.

I will pass on your comments to the three members of staff mentioned as well as the department as a whole. I'm sure this will be greatly appreciated by all involved.

I'm thankful this potentially distressing visit for you was made a pleasant one and I hope you continue to get the support you need.

Thanks again for your comments

Kind Regards

Kevin
