"Treatment at Dermatology - Forth Valley Health Board"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Dermatology Outpatients Centre / Dermatology

(as a service user),

I was referred earlier this year by my GP because of a small growth on my shoulder. I saw specialist nurse Brenda at Larbert (FVRH), who planned treatment for several dermatological conditions. She was very professional and very thorough. Within three weeks the growth had been removed and a biopsy taken from my nose. A couple of weeks later an appointment arrived for the next part of the planned treatment. Today I saw Barbara and Angela in Stirling, who removed a basal cell carcinoma from my nose and did a skin graft. The explanations they gave were very clear, and the care was excellent. Thank you Barbara and Angela.

What was impressive was the comprehensiveness of the planned treatment and how it is rolling out. Thank you Brenda, and also others in the team that I have seen.

Thank you very much for leaving such positive feedback about the department.

I'm glad you sounded as though you had a very uncomplicated patient journey

I have passed your feedback onto the members of the surgical team also.

I will see you at your follow up

Brenda
