Torn bicep tendon

Posted By Alex43

"Torn bicep tendon"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Day Surgery University Hospital Wishaw / Trauma and Orthopaedics (14- 16)

(as a service user),

I had torn my bicep tendon and was called in very quickly to have surgery to repair.

From the moment I entered the department everyone I came in to contact with was fantastic.

The nursing staff took good care of me making sure I was comfortable and smiling as any surgery can be worrying . 

The team working on my surgery day were just the best .

Dear Alex43

Thank you for sharing your experience of University Hospital Wishaw, Day Surgery.

It can be a tense time attending hospital for a procedure and I am so pleased to hear that the staff relieved any worries you had and took excellent care of you. This must have been very reassuring and helped you feel at ease.

I look forward to passing your kind words to the whole team who will get a real boost from hearing your feedback.

I hope you are recovering well.

Kind Regards,

Jen
