About: Eastbourne District General Hospital

I fell two days ago and broke my wrist. I went to Eastbourne AE where the staff were helpful and reassuring. I was assessed and x rayed quickley which was different to stories of long delays.I particularly want to thank the plastering dept.Evan the pulling to reduce the fracture was done with care and humour (plus some painkillers) I needed further surgery and the staff tried so hard to get me on their list that day.It was full and they then organised admission to The Conquesr Hastings the next day.I felt great trouble was taken .I am now home and pinned together.A big thank you.
