About: Belfast City Hospital / General Medicine Gilford Health Centre

(as a service user),

I recently had a phone call from City Hospital Belfast regarding a follow up appointment to discuss biopsy results. As the treatment had been in the Southern Trust I was naturally very concerned.  June, the receptionist was extremely helpful and did her best to try and get me more information.  She went to great lengths to reassure me and to arrange for my GP to call me back.  All this at 3pm on a Friday afternoon.  

Overall the standard of care in Gilford Health Centre is second to none.

Dear Yellowkw68,

My name is Máire and I'm part of the Patient and Client Experience team in the Belfast Trust.

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to acknowledge how supportive June was to you and to let us know about how it felt to talk to her on the phone. Our receptionists and admin teams are often the first point of contact for our patients and it's so heartening to hear that you were given the attention and care that we would all strive for.

I would like to pass your comments on to June and it would be good to know which department it was you were in contact with. If it would be possible, please contact me on maire.alexander@belfasttrust.hscni.net or leave a response here with the department name so that I can track her down and pass on your thanks

I wish you the best in your ongoing health and thank you again for sharing your story.

Máire
