"The appreciation of the Department"

About: North Devon District Hospital / Endoscopy North Devon District Hospital / Urology

(as the patient),

I attended for a cystoscopy procedure today, October 2021 which I have had done for bladder cancer which thankfully due to the care of Urology is clear. The Staff at Endoscopy are very professional but also very friendly and make you feel at ease. The procedure was carried out by Ansu the Specialist Nurse who was brilliant. The care before the procedure and afterwards was superb and cannot be faulted. The whole Staff and Department are a credit to North Devon District Hospital and to the NHS. Thank you

Dear Bob the old firemat

Many thanks for taking the time and trouble to leave such lovely feedback. I am very pleased that you found your care in the endoscopy department, both before and after your procedure, to be caring and compassionate. It is wonderful when patients take the time and trouble to leave such positive feedback and a great boost to staff morale in these difficult times. I wish you well for your continuing care under the urology department.

Kind regards

Paula
