"Responding to my individual needs"

About: Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham / Ophthalmology

(as a service user),

The pandemic and staff shortages have severely affected the team's services, meaning I hadn't been seen in person for a while but yesterday, I was. The contact lens and optometry service I have had in the last week were both superb and I really felt as though the team were responding to my individual needs. I have a very specific injury but Sylvia - a new addition to the staff, I think - was brilliant and I was very impressed. It is tough for all of us at the moment but I think the ophthalmic/optometry service at QEHB is doing a fantastic job and I am very grateful.
