I met Gemma when I was waiting for my breast surgery. She is a very attentive and caring nurse, went through all the preparations with me and recommended a brand of post-surgery bra to me, which has proved to be very helpful for the recovery of my breast. Nothing is too much trouble for her. Each time I got in touch with her via email, she always replied promptly and got my issues sorted swiftly. In particular, on my surgery day, she managed to visit me by my bedside in the day surgery ward, answered many questions I had, reassured me everything would be fine, and put my mind at ease, which greatly reduced my anxiety. Her professionalism, dedication, compassionate care, and support have impressed me so much.
