"They looked after me extremely well"

About: Victoria Hospital / Cardiology

(as the patient),


I was  at the Victoria hospital, Kirkcaldy in ward 20-21 a short time ago to investigate the condition of my heart and lungs with various tests being carried out as well. My stay of four days was made a lot more bearable with the constant helpful pleasant attitude  of the doctor and all the nurses who looked after me extremely well.

I have a great deal of respect for the marvellous care I received.

Thank you everyone.

Dear Jcam,

Thank you for finding the time to write about you recent experience of admission to ward 21 here in the Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy.

It's great to read that the nurses and Doctors looked after you extremely well and the care was marvellous. I'll forward your story onto all the staff, who I'm sure will be as proud as I am reading your story.

On behalf of all the staff on ward 21, we all hope you've been keeping well since discharge from hospital and take care.

Dear Jamie, thank you very much for your kind response to my article on the treatment I received when I was being treated in Ward 21 for extreme breathing difficulties.

I am a 74 years old male and my breathing was very difficult and concerning The staff, Doctors and Nurses were very helpful and kept me informed before and after treatment.

If I ever need to go into hospital again I would certainly hope I go to Ward 21.
