About: Wansbeck Hospital

I have been back and forward to endocrinology for the past 2 years with no reasons to abnormal blood result for then to have bloods to be taken to be normal. The past 2 years my bloods have been going overactive then back to normal then it repeats itself. Bloods taken in august showed that i was overactive then have a blood test done on the 11the October and by the 13th of October the consultant had rang me and told me that i now have gone underactive and have also been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called hasimotos thryoiditis been put on levothyroxine. But can i just say that my consultant Dr at endocrinology has been fantastic in doing detailed tests to discover what was going on with me. They explained everything in full to me and told me if i had any more questions just to ring his secretary and he would get back to me. They are by far the best consultant i have ever come across they need to be recognised for going above and beyond for giving people hope and telling them not to give up.

Dear Sir/Madam,

It was really lovely to be able to read about your experience, I am delighted that your consultant has been so helpful and informative. It will be an absolute pleasure to be able to share this with the consultant who treated you, as you say they should be recognised for going above and beyond for their patient. To ensure that your kind words are passed onto the right person, would you mind sending your consultant’s name to patient.experience@northumbria-healthcare.nhs.uk, or if you can’t remember their name, if you could send your details (name and DOB) to the same address, we can identify the consultant for you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

Jessica

Jessica Mallach - Head of Quality Improvement and Patient Experience
