IN early December 2014 I wrote to praise the service I had received from Poole Hospital A&E, after an unfortunate slip left me with a broken ankle.

Now I am nearly fully recovered and should be ‘signed off’ from both the fracture clinic and physio department on February 25.

Over several appointments nearly all have been on time, most a few minutes early, only one was five minutes late.

Indeed one physio appointment was 20 minutes early (due to a no show of the patient due before me). I only had to wait four days for my first physio appointment after the surgeon said I was fit enough to start physio.

Well done all staff at Poole Hospital and thank you.
