"Myself phoning GMed"

About: Dr Gray's Hospital / Emergency Medicine NHS 24

(as the patient),

Having suffering acute headache for two days could not cope any more so phoned 111.

To keep this short and to the point which is all that matters I cannot praise this service enough. It was quick clear and responded immediately to my suffering.

I cannot thank them enough for the help and concern that I received from all departments. From a Dr arriving at midnight to emergency ambulance at 6 am to being admitted to Dr Grays in Elgin Consultants, Doctors, Nursing Staff from top to bottom were fantastic. Thank you, thank you all most sincerely.

I know we are miles behind say Germany but what we do have or can afford is incredible. From now on I will take an interest in the fund raising for Dr Grays hospital. They deserve all the back up that all of us should help provide. At sometime in our lives we will depend on them to relieve our suffering or save our life.

Please keep up the good work. - we need you! !

Thank you all again.

Regards and good wishes
