"A brilliant first impression"

About: Day Surgery / Day Surgery Surgical

(as a service user),

Attended  Hairmyres day surgery , never been there before, just glad to be there for operation.  My first nurse contact was Mary, a brilliant first impression, pleasant, chatty and professional. Throughout my visit all the staff were similar,  could not fault anyone. Thank you. Later Mary showed me the way out, still smiling. Thank you again .

Dear Jamewil,

It was a pleasure to read that you had a positive experience when attending for your recent operation. Initial impressions are so important and I'm pleased that Mary acted in a professional manner providing much needed support and chat. Mary will be pleased to hear that you took the time to provide such lovely feedback, many thanks.

We wish you well as you continue to recover from your surgery.

Kind Regards

Pauline
