I crashed my bicycle on a remote road and although my helmet took the force I injured my face, shoulder, back and severed a tendon on my right index finger. I received excellent treatment from Dunoon A&E, Royal Alexandra Hospital Paisley A&E and the orthopaedic and the surgeon and theatre team who repaired my finger. Follow up care at Inverclyde Royal Hospital under orthopaedic surgeon Mr Chapel was superb and the follow up specialist hand physiotherapist was organised well in advance. A superb, efficient, caring service from start to finish. The NHS at its very best. I plan to be back on my bike in a few weeks when I’ve fully regained the strength in my injured hand. Thank you.
