Daughters trip to ED

"Daughters trip to ED"

About: Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital (Wonford) / Accident and emergency Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital (Wonford) / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as a parent/guardian),

My 5 year old daughter in the last 4 weeks has broken her ankle on a trampoline and yesterday broke her wirst on Monkey Bars (whilst no-one was looking, we didnt allow this! ! ) Have had a trip to ED and Fracture Clinic on both occassions and the staff have been wonderful, professional and made a shy 5 year old feel at ease. Particular thanks to junior Dr Toby, great interaction with her.

Thanks everyone.
