"Surgery & Aftercare"

Had major surgery at Victoria hospital Kirkcaldy recently to remove massive ovarian cyst, full hysterectomy & appendectomy.   From first appointment with Dr Singh, everything moved very quickly. From arrival on the day I was kept fully aware of everything that was going to happen etc & all theatre staff couldn’t not have done more to make me feel comfortable & secure. Was in surgical HDU for 3 days following surgery & could not have been looked after better.   This is such a good set up & is most certainly engineered to make recovery as good as it can possibly be.   My nurse, Kelly & her trainee Emma were absolutely wonderful. Emma especially took such good care of me at all times & I felt went above & beyond to ensure my care felt “special “. She will be such an asset to any department when she qualifies in a few weeks.   Again, when transferred to the gynaecology ward, the staff were all fantastic. When something is seriously wrong, this is where the NHS really comes into its own.
