It was my first time of having a sigmoidoscopy and was quite nervous of the unknown.
I have complicated health problems with a rare disease which most doctors are not familiar with which was concerning me more than anything else.
All the staff took time to find out what it was about and how to deal with it should a problem arise.
I was treated so well from start to finish.
The two nurses in the room with me were just so lovely and I can't give them enough praise along with the person doing the endoscopy.
After the procedure I was taken along to have a cup of tea and a sandwich but unfortunately they did not have any gluten free one so they kindly went out of their way to track down one for me.
I was so grateful as I was really hungry and had to stablelise my blood sugar levels.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for treating me so well, you are doing a fantastic job.
