Dear ‘Buddh’

Many thanks for your feedback about our Endoscopy Unit, I will most certainly share this with the Endoscopy team.

It is not the most appealing thought to have a gastroscopy and some patients can be quite anxious when they arrive at the department so I am very pleased to hear that you had exemplary service with good explanations and care during the procedure.

I am sorry to hear that you felt unattended during part of your visit and I will raise this concern with the ward sister to make sure that any periods of inactivity are made clear when explaining the treatment plan with the patient.

Kind regards and best wishes

Sue Mellor

Head of Patient Engagement
