"You made me feel like a respected human being"

About: Holme Valley Memorial Hospital

(as the patient),

I had surgery to straighten a hammer toe under local anaesthetic which l was absolutely dreading. I need not have worried. The staff were amazing. They were very reassuring from the start and made me feel very relaxed throughout the whole experience. The waiting time from my initial appointment to to the actual surgery was only five weeks. Amazing service, lovely friendly staff, great teamwork. You made me feel like a respected human being and not just a number. Thank you so much.

Kind regards
