"Superb Mermaid Centre experience."

About: Royal Cornwall Hospital (Treliske)

I had an appointment at the Mermaid Centre and I can't praise the staff highly enough for the service I received. All of the staff were extremely professional and efficient but also kind and approachable, the latter two qualities being so important when you're a bit worried and anxious. Thank you so much to the receptionist, health care assistant, the consultant surgeon, mammographer and consultant sonographer who looked after me so well. You're all doing amazing jobs through such difficult and challenging times in the NHS. The waiting room was busy and you must have had a clinic list as long as your arm but I never felt rushed or hurried, simply a patient who would be given as much time, care, advice and information as I needed. I hope that the Trust directors understand what sterling staff they have and value you accordingly. Come on directors, give a big hand for the Mermaid Centre staff! I'm leaving my name and appointment date so that you can track the clinicians who saw me and let them know what a great job they're doing. From F. Crookes, seen on 2nd November 2017.

Thank you very much for posting review of the Mermaid Centre at Royal Cornwall Hospital. I am so pleased to read that you had such a positive experience especially at what must have been an anxious time for you. The care you describe is exactly the type of professionalism and care we hope all colleagues strive to achieve, so it is wonderful to receive feedback such as yours.

I will ensure your thanks and praise is passed on to the relevant team so that all staff who would have contributed to your experience are also made aware of your kind words as I know they will be thrilled to receive it.

Thank you again.

With kind regards,

Michaela Brewer, Patient Experience Coordinator
