My daughter came home for the weekend from university with a 5 day history of a sore throat and feeling generally horrid. On the Sunday morning she felt worse so I called 111 and this resulted in an appointment with the BECs service at the Borders General Hospital. We were seen on time by a very professional and friendly GP by the name of Gordon. He gave my daughter a thorough check up and prescribed her the appropriate antibiotic treatment for tonsillitis. He also advised about a follow up with her own GP is she is not improving due to being at university and the risk of glandular fever.
We were very grateful for the advice and treatment she received in such a timely manner.
Thank you
"Professional and friendly GP"
