Customer Feedback

“The Patient Services digital screens and magazine racks is a really good service. The digital screen boards are big and clear. The adverts which I sent are up and running and are really good for patient information… The local adverts which come with the screen are appropriate and actually good for local businesses.

 

The magazines are good quality and were welcomed by the patients and the screen engineer has been here a few times and he is helpful and courteous. The installation was as promised and exactly what I had hoped for. The units themselves are good quality. “
