"Excellence is the word"

Initial chat with consultant in gastrology to discuss pros and cons of Rig procedure, previously suggested by dietician. Information given in sensitive, kindly manner on both occasions.

Several meetings later with the nutrician nurse, whom I can't praise enough,resulted in admission to proceed.

Radiology dept - the deed was done accompanied by 'Queen' - a popular choice!

Pre and after op, care was on Ridgeway ward where, despite obvious work load, nursing skills were superb as was the team spirit

and cheerful atmosphere.

Daily cleaning was thorough and speed of bed changing - remarkable. Top marks to chef - porridge was delicious.

Home again: impression left is of professional medical treatment delivered with utmost care; patient welfare being paramount.

Felt a little 'special'.

Thank you to all whom I met.
