"A&E Experience"

About: University College Hospital / Accident and emergency

After recently suffering with back pain and nerve discomfort and numbness in the lower limbs - to the point where I was losing power and strength.. my friend took me to UCLH A&E department after work. From the receptionist to the assessment doctor, I received thorough assessments of my situation, understanding and professional care. I was then admitted and booked in for a prompt MRI scan for the suspected problem. Thankfully it wasn’t what was suspected, though was given relevant medication and also seen by a neurologist the next day to oversee my symptoms before being discharged. I am still in discomfort and researching a root cause though would like to thank all A&E staff for their faultless care, friendliness, and prompt investigations in treating me. Nothing was too much bother! The best in the country!

Thank you all so much.
