I was recently admitted to Northwick Park A&E with severe breathing problems.

Can I just say how wonderful the staff were, from the security guard, who wanted to get me a cup of tea, to the nurses and doctors, who managed to get me stable.

We must stop criticising Northwick Park (“A&E crisis: hospital falling behind”, Harrow Times, January 8) and appreciate the hard work and pressures that the staff are under. Well Done Northwick Park!
