"Lovely staff and professional care"

About: Blackpool Victoria Hospital / Gastroenterology

(as the patient),

I came for a gastroscopy after being referred by my GP and was overall very satisfied with the service. The staff at BVH are extremely polite and friendly, took time to explain everything and were thorough. The gastroscopy itself wasn't exactly the most pleasant experience I've had, but the nurses were all reassuring throughout. I didn't wait too long, just 20 mins from my appointment time and was out very quickly in about half an hour. Overall, lovely staff and professional care.

Dear Yuki,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback for our staff in the Gastro department at Victoria Hospital.

I'm sure they'll be thrilled to hear that their polite and friendly manner made such a difference to you whilst undergoing your procedure. Its great to hear that they took the time to explain what was happening and reassured you throughout.

I will share your very kind words with the department.

With every best wish for the future.
