A FEW weeks ago I was admitted to Whipps Cross Hospital with acute haemoglobin malfunction of the blood and I was put in Nightingale Ward.

I recovered extremely well thanks to the doctors and nursing staff on that ward.

They were very caring and considerate over the five days I was in hospital and I have a great deal of satisfaction telling you that they were absolutely wonderful in bringing about my return to health.

If every ward at Whipps Cross was as good as Nightingale it would be a real boost for the much-maligned NHS.

I thought the food was great and in all it was a pleasant experience.

My grateful thanks to all the staff in Nightingale Ward for their dedicated care.
