Patients' Stories

'My 20 month old son was diagnosed with a brain tumour at Queen’s. We were transferred to Great Ormond Street Hospital where we stayed for 7 weeks. We are now back at Queen’s after a successful operation, his tumour was benign. All the NHS staff we have encountered are truly wonderful, caring people and without them my son would not be here!'

'I would like to say a big thank you to Ms Tebbitt and her team in the Gynaecology department for their caring and helpful attitude towards me whilst a patient under their care. They made me feel that I mattered and offered me great care. They have restored my faith in the NHS and I would like everyone to know how lucky we are to have such good people looking after us.'

'Contrary to complaints by others about waiting times for surgery, I am proud of the NHS. In April, I had a fall at work and was taken to A&E in a timely, professional manner to treat a dislocated shoulder.
The NHS is the best in the world.
