I was sent to hospital by NHS24 to have a groin abscess checked. Being 25 weeks pregnant I was very anxious and concerned and in a lot of pain. From NHS24 to the out of hours GP to the surgeon and nurses in the Admissions unit 2 I was looked after brilliantly. The speed of being seen was amazing and although I had to undergo a painful drainage of the abscess I was in and out within 4 hours, feeling such a relief that myself and baby were going to be fine!!
Special thanks to Richard the surgeon and the two nurses Jenna and Anne who took excellent care of me when I had to be there alone due to COVID. so impressed with NHS Fife! Thanks all!
