Maura, Avril, Simone, Dr Raine and Dr Saad, the team in the MAU department, without a doubt a fantastic team, treating each patient as an individual , with attention, care, dignity, compassion, an all over holistic approach from this team. They were under such pressure with an exceptionally busy patient overload, but they did their best to assure we all got the attention we needed.

Dr Risteard in the A.M.A.Unit was a model in how doctors in general should attend to their patients. He was thorough, considerate very professional in all his dealings with me. The nurses were attentive, considerate and very kind. In fact, all of the staff in the Unit, from the porter who got me around to the X-Ray and other departments to the consultant who had overall charge of my particular case made the whole experience a very pleasant one.
