"Excellent treatment at Grantham hospital with chest pain"

About: Grantham & District Hospital / Cardiology

(as a service user),

I had chest pain and very high blood pressure and was worried I was having a second stroke.

In mid-February I attended Grantham critical care treatment hospital and tests were carried out. Thorough tests and caring and most professional treatment received and I was able to return home well and reassured.

I received a telephone call the next day to check on my well-being. I am most grateful to our NHS particularly Grantham Critical Care. Thank you.
