Colonoscopy this Afternoon

Posted By OldSoldier

"Colonoscopy this Afternoon"

About: Western General Hospital / General Surgery

(as the patient),

Although a worrying procedure (my first ever), that did turn out to be quite uncomfortable, the Staff were amazing. I was made to feel extremely comfortable as everything was explained so well and I felt much more at ease as a result before the procedure started.

Discussion and Banter with the Staff during the procedure definately aleviated any fears or pain.

Top Job by the Staff of the Western General.
