My mother spent the last few weeks of her life in the Avocet Ward. I would like to express my gratitude to all the staff there. They were all very caring and kind to both my mum and the family. It was of great comfort to us to know that she was in capable and professional hands when we left her side. She passed away peacefully thanks to the staff there. Many thanks. We will always remember you all for your kindness.

I attended for an ultrasound check on my kidneys and was delighted with the service I received. I was seen on time, if not even a little early. The procedure was painless and the person looking after me was entirely professional and highly competent throughout. Local small community hospitals are a great asset to the NHS and I hope they continue to prosper. Thank you Saffron Walden Community hospital.
