I attended A&E with my husband 3rd April when he was advised to attend by his GP because of chest pain. The male receptionist wasn't very friendly or responsive and took some time without speaking to us before asking us to take a seat. After a short wait my husband was seen by the streaming nurse who was very reassuring and compassionate. He was the quickly seen for further assessment, ECG, blood tests etc. The Nurses, Doctors and Practitioners were all very kind, kept us informed and comfortable. The XRay was organised and quickly undertaken. He was reassured before being discharged and further outpatient assessments were arranged. Also a big shout out for the lovely friendly volutary lady who provided us with a cup of tea and offer of a sandwich or snack whilst waiting.. This was a lovely, unexpected touch. Ourr experience was much better than anticipated. A big thank you to all the staff.
