"Terrific treatment "

About: Northern General Hospital

Started with a fever, 24 hrs later my foot swelled up and was red and sore. I decided to bypass the GP as my foot looked awful. Arrived at A&E (N General) at about 7.30am. I was seen promptly, triaged, blood's taken and assessed by the consultant by 1045. It was diagnosed as cellulitis and IV antibiotics given. Blood's came back as ok so I was allowed home with antibiotics to take at home. In light of the constant moans about the NHS I want to place on record how terrific the treatment and care I received were. The staff were cheerful, positive and efficient, without exception. I am very grateful.
