Mr. Michael Allen and his team for their professionalism in every way during my short two day stay at this hospital in July and especially so to Mr. Allen in the treatment of my aftercare. To deal with such caring considerate people makes such a difference.

A nurse called Mary in A&E. She works 2 days a week, she explained very clearly what was happening and told the kitchen to make sure I got enough food and care. I was scared and she was very gentle and understanding. She was very good at blood tests and kept me very calm. She is a truly brilliant nurse and there should be more like her.
