Very patient took time to listen
As mentioned on the NAMS page, Andrew is a fantastic nurse who clearly cares about his patients. Listens to what you have to say, shows good empathy and does everything he can to help resolve problems.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm really happy that my passion to provide the best care possible is evident in what I do.
He listened to what I had to say discussed my stoma made suggestions and we were both happy at the end of the consultation
Our consultations should be a partnership with shared input and decision-making. I am glad you experienced this. Thanks for sharing
