• “Anonymity in posting my story”

• “It was a place to give a big thank you”

• “Great to hear other peoples experiences”

• “It’s relative informality”

• “I got a quick reply”

What could be better?

• “make more folk aware that it is available”

• “Only more patients views”

• “more publicity, I can’t find it now”

• “perhaps an advanced search”

• “It's not clear the comments actually go anywhere or have any impact”

• “Feedback and follow-up. People want to know what happens as a result”
