Recently I had a number of appointments and assessment procedures with Dr Lindsay in the Respiratory Clinic. Tests followed including CT scans, barium meal, breathing and blood tests. This was followed by detailed feedback from Dr Lindsay both face to face and in written form to keep me informed of what was happening.
Referrals and prompt follow up was then carried out by consultants Dr Devlin in ENT and Dr Johnson in Gastroenterology.
Subsequently I attended the RVH for separate procedures. The care and attention I experienced by all clinicians, medical staff and ancillary support during all these procedures was exemplary.
As a previous cancer survivor on two occasions my anxiety was high. I was listened to, talked to through all that was happening. This was followed up by both immediate feedback and copies of all documentation sent to my GP.
A holistic, integrated person centered approach and experience as a patient. Thank you to consultants and all staff I experienced I could not have asked or expected more as a patient.
