"This department is a credit to the hospital"

About: Royal Bournemouth General Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

I was admitted with chest pain, had exceptionally good care from all A&E staff, who were friendly, caring, reassuring and supportive.

I am at a loss to see how so many people complain about this department there staff are fantastic. I waited for a reasonable amount of time just under 4 hours but in that time had blood tests, chest x ray, examination by 2 doctors and one nurse. Diagnosed and treated and home.

I think all this being done in that time is incredible and this department is a credit to the hospital. Thanks

Thank you also for noting how caring, reassuring and supportive the staff were during your visit.
