"Lincoln Hospital was great"

My husband was taken to LH A&E by ambulance suffering severe abdominal pain at 8am. After approx 2 hours of treatment, blood samples and scans he was diagnosed with a suspected gallstone attack. He was given strong pain relief. He went to sleep. At 6.15 pm he was on a surgical ward. He had been monitored constantly in A&E in kept comfortable in a cubicle. I was brought cups of tea and a sandwich. We were told he might have an operation or drugs might sort out the gall bladder inflamation. After 5 days of excellent and kind care he was discharged with his gall bladder intact. Antibiotics and painkillers had cured the infection. We both have nothing but the highest praise for the 111 operator, the 2 East Midlands ambulance staff, and everyone at Lincoln Hospital.

There are signs of wear and tear and overstretched staff/ equipment but they handle it all magnificently.
