"Positive C Section Experience"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Maternity unit

(as a service user),

My recent elective section was an incredibly positive experience, thanks to the exceptional care provided by the entire team.

Elaine, our Anaesthetic Assistant, and the team leaders - both called Laura - ensured everything ran smoothly, while Lucy, the consultant anaesthetist, kept me comfortable and reassured throughout.

Isla, our midwife, was a constant source of support. Dr. Wilson and Dr. Patrick, the consultant surgeons, were extraordinarily kind and attentive, making what had been a long journey to bring our baby boy into the world much easier to navigate.

The theatres were impeccably organized, and the professionalism of the entire team was evident at every stage. I felt well cared for and deeply grateful for the expertise and compassion that surrounded me.
