"My recent stay at Doncaster Royal Infirmary:)"

About: Doncaster Royal Infirmary

Anything else?

I recently had my first stay in hospital at Doncaster Royal Infirmary. At first I was seen by the out if hours GP in the A+E department, i have to say he was very short with me:( and kept telling me to be quiet! I think he must have been very busy that night but still i didn't feel very comfortable with him. He admitted me to hospital. I was then taken to the assessment ward. All I have is praise for the staff on the surgical assessment ward and ward 20 which I was taken to after my assessment. I was treated with dignity and respect and was well looked after. The doctors kept me informed with what was going to happen and what tests was needed and why. Thank you very much:) All the staff work such long hours and do such a good job throughout their long shifts. It must be hard working them but as a patient it was lovely to see familiar faces. I'm so happy we have the NHS:) Thank you very much again:)
