"Staff's care made a challenging situation tolerable at Box Hill Hospital"

About: Box Hill Hospital / Emergency Department

(as the patient),

Presented to Emergency Department with abdominal pain, had tried everything to avoid it. Was given thorough care in my journey through Emergency and into Short Stay Unit. When ultrasound revealed I needed an MRI, I was promptly taken to the ward. The surgical team I came under medically and all the nurses ensured all of my needs were met. They made sure I was informed of all of the processes. Their care made a challenging situation tolerable.
