I attended the Breast clinic for a lump which turned out to be a simple - but very large cyst. All of the staff from the nurse who contacted me with my initial appointment, which occurred within 10 days of my visit to the GP; the receptionist when I arrived; the health care assistant, nurses and the consultant were very kind. They took time to explain everything and ensure that I understood and was happy with the care I was receiving. The advice leaflets they gave me to take home were very clear.
My only concern was with the radiologist in the x-ray department who was happy to explain things to her student, but left me feeling like I was someone to demonstrate on, rather than a still quite anxious patient.
