"Holiday Accident"

About: Wansbeck Hospital

I was brought to Wansbeck A&E on July 7th 2014 following a fall at Seahouses. I had broken my wrist, clear even to a non-medical person like me.I was seen very quickly, given painkillers and lots of sympathy and my wrist was manipulated into a better position and a temporary cast put on. An appointment at the fracture clinic was made for me for the next day. I am very grateful for the excellent treatment I received.
