Dear Stuart21

Thank you for taking the time to tell your story. I am so sorry to hear what happened to you at A&E in St John's Hospital, this must have been very scary for you.

I would be happy to look into this for you and would ask if you can please contact me at the Patient Experience Team so that l can get a bit more information about this, my telephone number is 0131 536 3370 or via email (feedback@nhslothian.scot.nhs.uk) and l look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards

Jeannette
