"Excellent Experience"

About: West Cumberland Hospital

I recently had to have a colonoscopy, and all the staff in this department were professional, efficient, and friendly. Before going for the procedure everything was explained fully and I was given choices about the level of sedation on offer. I opted not to have sedation but was told that I could change my mind at any point during the procedure. I was kept fully informed at all times during the procedure and was treated with dignity and respect.

If I was to have this procedure done again I wouldn't hesitate in accepting an appointment at this hospital.

Many thanks to all the staff involved.

Dear Irene

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Trust. I am really pleased you had such a positive experience and that you were kept informed before, during and after your procedure.

All of our staff work really hard to provide this level of care and they will be delighted with your comments.

I shall forward your kind comments to the Endoscopy department so that they can be shared with the team who will be delighted to know that you appreciated the care that they provide

Best wishes for the future.
