"Hernia repair operation"

About: University Hospital Monklands / Day Surgery University Hospital Monklands / General Surgery (Ward 4)

(as the patient),

I attended day surgery at Monklands Hospital to have a hernia repair, I was very apprehensive on arrival , however I was taken immediately to the ward.

The procedure was explained clearly, I understood exactly what would happen.

The care from nurses Stacey and Christina was exemplary, they could not have done more for me and made the experience very easy.
