He put me at ease

"He put me at ease"

About: Community Health Services / Community physiotherapy Whiston Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

I went to see Gareth the physio because I have a bulging disc. He examined me and told me I'd need to go for a scan at Whiston Hospital. I'd never had a scan before but he put me totally at ease and explained to me what was involved.

After the scan, I went back to see Gareth and he told exactly what was wrong. He explained that I have spinal stenosis. He arranged for a referral for me to see a consultant about this and gave me a choice of hospital. I chose Whiston as it's nearer my home.
