Dear Editor,

I have recently received some excellent medical care at the Hereford County Hospital, and wish to pay tribute to the facility.

When I arrived at the hospital on October 13th, 2016, I thought that it was for a few days. In practice, I stayed there for a total of one month.

During my stay, I experienced extreme professionalism and never-ending kindness at all times.

I am now looking forward to starting my new life, at past 80 years of age.

We are exceptionally lucky to have such a wonderful NHS?hospital in Herefordshire, and I am so grateful.
