Tell us how we’re doing
We need your feedback on our Microbiology services to ensure we are providing the most suitable service for our users and, as a result, the patients. Please let us know what we are doing well as well as where you feel we could make improvements by completing our Microbiology User Feedback survey.
If a particular member of staff or department deserve recognition, please leave them a compliment.
Please note: the Microbiology user feedback survey is designed to be completed by healthcare personnel and not patients or members of the public. If you are a patient and would like to feedback about Microbiology services, please discuss this with your clinical team or follow the link below for feedback & complaints.
Voicing a concern or complaint allows us to investigate and learn from your experiences and improve the services we offer here in Public Health Wales. Details of how to make a complaint can be found at the feedback and complaints page.
