Madam, - I was recently despatch to a centre of excellence for the purpose of obtaining a blood test. I have to say that I was very pleased with the level of service and attention provided, including a very short waiting period, and delighted that at least some part of our health service was functioning well.
Mind you, that was over three months ago and there has been no sign of a result since. Needless to say, I didn't wait that long before making alternative arrangements. - Yours, etc,
ARTHUR DUNNE, Blackrock, Co Dublin.
