About: South West Acute Hospital / Podiatry South West Acute Hospital / Radiology

(as a carer),

I brought my elderly mother to a podiatry appointment today in South West Acute Hospital. The podiatrist was very professional, courteous and thorough. Mum needed to attend for an x-Ray following her appointment. Again the staff were very professional and kind. As a carer I felt valued and involved. Thank you.
