I attended Ninewells hospital breast screening unit for my 14: 30 appointment. Firstly I was met by a very friendly receptionist who welcomed me into the area and showed me to the comfortable sitting area. I was shortly met by the Health Care Assistant who took me through into the consulting room. She introduced herself and asked if I had any questions. After having a general discussion, she called for the Doctor to attend.
At this point, I became very anxious about the procedure. The Health Care Assistant immediately offered me her hand and as I am currently pregnant she started to ask me about how I was keeping etc. The Doctor was extremely gentle and I hardly even felt the local being injected. I felt completely at ease in the care of this Health Care Assistant and Doctor who worked seamlessly together and offered a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Thankyou so much for your time.
