"Excellent advice"

About: Alnwick Infirmary

My husband's leg had swollen after a bite and we were worried how to manage this on a long journey and that we wouldn't be able to get to our GP for some time. A local pharmacist referred us to the Unit at Alnwick Infirmary. We were seen quickly and the nurse was very friendly and helpful, answering any questions we had.

She gave us excellent advice about what we could do to reduce the swelling and explained what we needed to look out for over the next few days. It was great - she gave us all the information and reassurance we needed.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am sorry to read about your husbands swollen leg and your initial difficulty receiving treatment.

Hopefully your husband is now on the mend?

We really appreciate you sharing this with us, it’s great for us to be able to share this with our teams so they can celebrate everything they got right for you both.

Please don’t hesitate to come back to Alnwick Infirmary should you ever need us.

Take care,

Jan
