"Bad Experience"

About: Western General Hospital / Edinburgh Breast Unit (Ward 6)

(as the patient),

I had surgery in April. A few days after surgery, I noticed 2 extra cuts on my body. I asked the surgeon on my review and did not get an explanation about the cuts. The surgeon actually said the cuts did not matter. I am still horrified by this.
