"I was a little apprehensive"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Gastroenterology

(as the patient),

I was a little apprehensive however, I was quickly reassured by the nursing staff.

The procedure was uncomfortable although the staff were on hand to reassure me throughout the process. I was treated with dignity and respect from start to finish and given time to feel comfortable before leaving to return home.

This was a worrying time or me which was made more comfortable by the medical staff.

Dear Malhotra, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience of our unit on Care Opinion.

This would, I’m sure, have been a very worrying time for you and I am so pleased to hear that the team treated you well and gave you ample time to recover. It really is a whole team effort and this is the level of patient care we strive daily to deliver to every patient.

I will share your lovely comments with the team at our brief this afternoon and I am sure they will be delighted.

I hope you are recovering well at home.

Kind regards, Lynne.

Dear Lynne, Thank you for your kind reply. I have had no health issues following the procedure. This is my first experience of using the Care Opinion and have found it easy to use and informative. I would use it again and recommend it to others.

Kind regards
