"The doctors and nurses on duty that night saved my life."

About: Glasgow Royal Infirmary / Accident & Emergency Glasgow Royal Infirmary / Critical Care Unit (ICU/HDU)

(as the patient),

I was recently admitted to Glasgow Royal Infirmary suffering from very high heart beat of 250 per min. I was in Glasgow to go to Strictly Show which was cancelled last minute. The doctors and nurses on duty that night saved my life 1 of the doctors had long hair and the other doctor was female with dark hair they were absolutely fantastic also the nursing staff in A&E were also unbelievable fantastic. These Doctors and nurses work extremely long hours and do a fantastic job and I don't feel they receive appreciation for it. I really would love to do something more than just write a review for them. 

I would also like to tell you the staff nurse called Maureen and the staff on CCU ward 44 were tremendous along with the staff the next morning, I had only met 1 of the nurses that morning sorry cannot remember her name but she gave me a hug when I was being transferred to Golden Jubilee Hospital Clydebank, I was quite over whelmed with everything.
