    Disillusioned

    I went for my yearly check up, armed with a copy of the report published by southportdr and she was so pleased. Said she would pass it on but also keep a copy as her husband had just been diagnosed. She's seen what a difference its made to me. I'm just gutted she's now retiring! Best DN I've met.
