"Surgical Admissions Unit"

About: Colchester General Hospital

I spent most of yesterday (Thu 22 Jan) in your SAU, being assessed following a kidney stone 'incident' during the previous night. It was a long day and I now have a forearm like the proverbial pin cushion but I have nothing but Thanks and praise for all those who helped me. Everybody was kind, kept me informed and were concerned for my well being. I am mindful that the SAU was really busy throughout the day. Can I particularly thank the Nurse and the junior Doctor whose name, I regret, I am not sure of. They were terrific Thank You again.
