"day surgery = a day of knowing more"

About: Darlington Memorial Hospital

Since I need to have a biopsy surgery so I was referred to Darlington day surgery. Feeling scared, nervous and really not sure what will be happen to me, I went there. To my surprise (especially after reading the comments) from the first moment I entered the day surgery department, all of the staff are very nice. The nurses are excellent, they know how to make me relax and the doctors are very friendly. After the surgery was finished and they took me to the recovery room, they gave me food and tea (I was even asked for the second and they gave it with smile) and waited until I was really ready to sit and then they waited again to see if I was really ready to be discharged. The ward was clean, the bed was clean and I really really felt safe with all the kindhearted and warm lovable nurses around me. Thank you!
