Patient Opinion

Patient Opinion is a website that gives service users and carers a way of voicing what they think of the services they receive. The story is handled confidentially by the non-profit service Patient Opinion. The story may appear (without your name) on their website. Patient Opinion asks the health service to respond to the feedback.
