About: Poole General Hospital / Accident and emergency South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust / Emergency ambulance

(as the patient),

Gp was not sure if I had a stroke or bells palsy, phoned hospital and I was blue lighted to poole hospital, ambulance crew were wonderful, but the ride was not. I don't know how the crew manage to work on them, very bumpy feel sorry for the crew.

When I got to the hospital I was seen straight away the staff where great, got told it was bells palsy and could go home. Many thanks to all the staff.
