I collapsed at work and an ambulance was called. Two lovely guys Nick and Johnny attended. I felt very bewildered and embarrassed, but they put me at ease and even managed to make me laugh (no easy feat as I felt pretty horrible). They took me to A& E at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary and was transferred to the care of Libby and a Doctor called Dennis. Again they were both so kind. I was kept informed the whole way through of the tests and what was happening. There was also a lady who’s name I think was Pamela, (sorry if this wasn’t your name) she took my obs, gave me a pair of socks (shoes left at work! ) and also escorted me to the toilet. She was chatty and friendly and helped me to relax. Genuinely there was just nothing that I could point out to be improved with any of the dealings I had with any of these hard-working people. You are all a credit to your profession and I send a sincere Thank you to you all.
