(as the patient),

Admitted for 2 procedures, colorectal and gynaecological, following investigations.

Was keep informed all the way through admission, preparation and post surgery by caring staff.

Could not think of anything which could be improved upon.

First class service, treatment and care given by all nurses and doctors.

My experience of pre-assessment and of all the services was excellent.

Dear Ava1,

Thank you for sharing your story on Care Opinion of University Wishaw, Day Surgery.

It can be a worrying time attending hospital for a procedure and I am so pleased that you received a first class service from our dedicated teams. It is important that our patients are informed about their procedures and I am pleased to hear that you were kept informed throughout and after your procedure.

I will be sure to pass your kind words and praise to the team. Being recognised will give them a much needed boost.

I hope you are recovering well.

Kind Regards,

Jenni

Update posted by Ava1 (the patient)

Many thanks for your response and I am recovering well. Ms Thornton my colorectal surgeon actually telephoned me on a Saturday ten days after my procedure to give me results and ask how I was. This is care above and beyond.
