A review of Southern General Hospital by IRENE BRENNAN written on Monday 21st of December 2009

I AM NOW 60 YEARS OLD-THANK GOD. BACK THEN MY SURGERY WAS STILL IN IT'S INFANCY...A 4 YEAR OLD WHO NEEDED OPEN HEART SURGERY. A TEAM OF DRS. FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES TOOK PART IN MY SURGERY "PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSIS",I THINK THAT IS THE CORRECT SPELLING. I WANT TO THANK THEM, AND HOPE TO VISIT THE HOSPITAL WHEN I COME HOME TO GLASGOW THIS COMING SUMMER. MY PARENTS RAVED ABOUT THE CARE I RECEIVED THERE, EVEN WHEN WE CAME TO CANADA THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT WHAT GREAT DOCTORS AND NURSES WERE ON STAFF. I LOVED MY THREE NURSES, MONTHS THEY WERE MY FAMILY AND I'VE NEVER FORGOTTEN THEM. WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE A TEACHING FACILITY I WASN'T SURPRISED-INNOVATIVE, AND AHEAD OF THE REST EVEN BACK IN THOSE DAYS. IF THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM OR A NEW MEDICAL PROBLEM, I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THIS HOSPITAL WILL BE ONE IF NOT THE FIRST, TO TACKLE AND SOLVE WHATEVER CROPS UP. WE DO HAVE GOOD CARE IN CANADA, BUT TRUST AND FAITH IN THE SOUTHERN GENERAL COMES WITH ON HAND KNOWLEDGE OF JUST HOW AHEAD OF THE REST IN MEDICAL RESEARCH THEY ARE; OTHERWISE-THERE WOULDN'T BE A ME TODAY. IT WAS ON THEIR RECOMMENDATION THAT I IMMIGRATE TO A WARMER CLIMATE-IT WORKED. I HAVEN'T SEEN THE NEW HOSPITAL, BUT I'D LIKE TO, BACK THEN IT WAS BEAR BONES-BUT THE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS WERE HIGH MAINTENANCE WITHOUT THE PAY-DEDICATED. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE WHAT BREAK-THROUGH'S THE HOSPITAL CAN ATTRIBUTE TO THEMSELVES, BUT I PLAN TO FIND OUT. THANKS FOR GIVING ME A VOICE, IT'S BEEN A LONGTIME IN COMING..
