I am writing to inform your readers and to the staff at Surrey Memorial Hospital about the wonderful care that I received while a patient at their fine establishment.
On Jan. 17, I had prostate surgery that was performed by Dr. C. Andreou, whom I describe as a world class surgeon and a true gentleman.
From the moment I arrived at the hospital to the time I was discharged on Jan. 21 (my birthday), I received the best possible care. Queen Elizabeth would not have had better care.
The staff there were outstanding, very friendly, professional, dignified and helpful.
They could not do enough for you whether it be at the start of their shift at 7:30 a.m. or 12 hours later.
They were always in a good mood and treated all the patients with the utmost care and dignity.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to them all. Until this situation arose with me I had never been in Surrey Memorial, let alone known where exactly it was.
Now I know.
With kindest regards, I remain eternally grateful.
Garth P. Allan
