I was discharged from Kingston Hospital a few days ago after treatment for pneumonia.

I would like your readers to know that this was an experience that left me full of admiration for that hospital and its people.

Within two hours of walking into accident and emergency, I had undergone every possible test and had been given the diagnosis.

The people who dealt with me during my four days there were warm, friendly, caring and skilled.

We hear so much that is negative about hospitals in general that I wanted to share a different experience.
