"I was incredibly impressed with the whole set-up"

About: NHS Tayside Stracathro Hospital / General Surgery

(as the patient),

Just wanted to thank the day case surgical unit at Stracathro. (had an operation with there with Mr Vijayasekar).

Despite being a 'health tourist' from NHS Grampian - from outpatient appointment right through to my surgery I was incredibly impressed with the whole set-up at Stracathro Hospital, & it is clearly one of the jewels in NHS Tayside's crown.

The ward staff were all very thorough, well-trained, informative & professional but also very friendly & made me feel less anxious & supported the whole time.

Nothing was too much trouble to them & I could see they were like this for all the patients that were on the ward with me (& not just me because I'm a doctor!) In addition, the ward was bright, clean & cheery.

Finally, thank you Mr Vijayasekar, for your most excellent surgical skills. Not one problem post-op.

Thank you so much for your feedback. It has been shared with the staff at Stracathro, including Mr Vijaysekar. They will be very appreciative. It is always good to hear positive feedback but especially when it is so specific. Thanks for taking the time to get in touch and we're glad to hear your operation was a success.

Kind regards,

Stuart
