Letter: Scotland’s NHS is meeting the challenges

I read with interest your article on NHS waiting times . Towards the end of last year I consulted my GP, who referred me to Stirling Community Hospital for an ultrasound examination, and I was given an appointment for January 9. Two days after that I again visited my GP to discuss the outcome of the ultrasound and was told I required to have an MRI scan at Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Larbert; that procedure took place on February 10. At all of these GP and hospital appointments I was seen on time and received courteous and professional attention in a calm atmosphere from all the health professionals concerned.
