About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Accident & emergency Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Vascular

(as the patient),

I was worried and concerned about worsening pain in my leg. I attended A and E. They were very good. I was received well and triaged quickly. The triage nurse and the doctor (Dr Greenway) were very nice, helpful and efficient. I felt anxious but I was reassured after seeing them. They started me on new medication and referred me to the vascular unit at Larbert. I felt reassured and hope not long to wait for a scan.
