"Excellent staff"

About: West Cornwall Hospital (Penzance)

I brought my teenage son for a colonoscopy and all of the staff involved - the endoscopist, the nurse who explained the procedure, the nurses who looked after him during the procedure and the nurse in the recovery room - were absolutely lovely: they were caring and good-humoured, helped him to relax, explained everything to us, and handled everything in a calm and professional manner. They really helped a young patient to cope with a stressful procedure.

Dear Dracodp64,

Many thanks for you kind feedback following your Sons procedure at West Cornwall Hospital. As the Hospital Manager it gives me a great deal of pleasure when reading feedback such as yours.

I was really pleased to hear the staff in our Endoscopy Unit were so kind, caring and compassionate throughout and helped to provide reassurance to your Son before, during and after his procedure.

At WCH we pride ourselves on providing excellent care to our patients and it is extremely important to receive such valuable feedback.

I will make sure your comments are shared with the team and hope your Son is well following his appointment.

With very kind regards,

Paul
