"Attended for a minor operation"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Day Surgery

(as the patient),

Attended for a minor operation at FVRH Day Surgery, 1st Floor Ambulatory clinic area.

I can't praise the help and professionalism of both David and Rona highly enough. Despite the fact I was the last the patient on what was no doubt a long day for both staff,  I was really, really pleased with and very grateful for their care and professionalism throughout.

 Pre and post op verbal and written information was given, in what I thought was pitched at exactly the right level for me, was succinct but not overwhelming or overly technical in content and in a really reassuring manner considering  I probably wasn't taking every detail in given the circumstances. 

Best of all their skill in making light conversation throughout,  I found absolutely excellent at keeping my mind off matters under the local anesthetic while they still did such a great, skilled and important job at the same time, in a relatively short timescale/ time period available. I'm really grateful and thankful for all their help - cant praise them and the service highly enough. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such wonderfully detailed feedback.

It is fantastic we were able to get things right for you, and that you recognised the team work required to make everything run smoothly.

Hopefully everything is healing well and you didn't feel too uncomfortable afterwards.

Thanks again

David
