Dear Misran,

Your accident was very unfortunate, but we hope that our Imaging Service helped to diagnose your injury clearly for the surgeons to fix.

We hope you are well on the road to recovery now, and thank you for taking the time to feedback on your experience.

Nigel Allen,

Radiology Services Manager
