RECENTLY I was advised to go to York Hospital for an X-ray of my foot and a blood test.

No appointment necessary. Arriving at 1pm at the X-ray reception, I was immediately seen by a charming young woman, X-ray over in moments.

The same treatment in the blood department. In and out within an hour of arriving at hospital.

The service was amazing. Well done to all concerned and thank you for your efficiency.

Many people grumble about waiting times, but I was fortunate indeed.
