Everything as always was brilliant.
Excellent - can't think of anything to improve.
Always feel better on leaving and have had a good laugh (best medicine).

My care was very well handled by the nurses and has helped me tremendously.
Very friendly, understanding, knowledgeable.
Everybody treats you with respect.
I found the consultant, De Fletcher a compassionate and caring doctor. He was really interested in listening to our situations and you could see how dedicated he was. I could not fault anything about the whole experience. Well done!
Nurse Ursula Dugdale greeted me in a warm professional manner. One of my concerns was I might be perceived as a 'time-waster' as my lymphoedema is mild compared to same. However, during my consultation with nurse Dugdale, I realised how much of the advice I had been given initially, I had forgotten. I learned how repetitive exercise can be a problem, was given a demonstration on how to massage my arm to aid drainage ( I hadn't been doing this correctly) reminded of the importance of keeping my skin moist and supple; shown and had explained to me a chart of lymphatic system, how care must be taken to avoid infection and should infection occur, 2 weeks of strong antibiotics must be taken. I felt my consultation in good spirits and well informed. Excellent.
