I recently had some worries about a potential extopic pregnancy and needed to visit the emergency department. From start to finish every single staff member, from the lady and reception, the lady and gentlemen that saw me in triage, the incredible (nurse?) Leanne that saw me in A&E (took bloods and our put in a line and was amazing, despite me sobbing and shaking due to a fear of needles) the porter, the wonderful midwives and Doctor I saw in gynecology and examined me and then arranged a scan for me first thing the next morning and the wonderful sonogropher and midwife Lynne that talked me through my scan and what was happening.
Every single staff member was kind, reassuring and delivered incredible care, at a time thay I was feeling incredibly scared and vulnerable their kindness meant everything to me.
I cannot thank every single one of them enough (apologies that I didn't catch everyone's name!) A wonderful example of the incredible individuals that really give everything to their patients and malk the NHS something to be proud of!
"Incredible care during early pregnancy worries"
