"Emergency visit"

About: The Tunbridge Wells Hospital

I was taken to A&E on Thursday with chest pains and breathing problems which felt like a heart attack. The ambulance arrived within seconds of the report and the paramedics were superb. They brought my pain levels right down before taking me to the hospital where I was seen immediately. From the very beginning every one concerned was so professional and caring. My pacemaker is now working again and I feel like a human being once again which had been the problem. I can not fault anyone of them. Wonderful people. I am now home and recovered and very very grateful to all concerned. The only unfortunate part of the visit was the Pharmacy ! A wait of three hours for medication.
