"A and E service at Wishaw Hospital"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Emergency Department

(as a relative),

Last night my wife who is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer found a rash on her body. After phoning the cancer helpline I took her to the A and E department of Wishaw Hospital.

I just want to say that the nurses and the lady doctor we seen were very caring, professional and extremely patient in dealing with us.

The diagnosis was shingles and the situation was carefully explained to us.

A huge thanks to the outstanding staff at A and E Wishaw.
