"My experience following surgery for a pilonidal abscess"

About: Western General Hospital / Day Surgery Unit

(as the patient),

I had surgery to drain a pilonidal abscess at Western General Hospital. The surgical team was very professional and reassured me before the procedure, which helped calm my nerves. The surgery went smoothly, and after the procedure, I was taken to recovery, where I was closely monitored.

The nursing team at Western General was truly exceptional, but I would like to give special thanks to Nurse Jenny. From the moment I arrived in the recovery room, Nurse Jenny was not only professional but also incredibly compassionate and attentive. She took the time to explain every step of my care, including pain management, wound care, and what to expect during recovery.

I never felt rushed or uncertain — Nurse Jenny was always available to answer my questions and ensure I was comfortable. She made sure I fully understood the instructions for post-surgery care before I went home, and her kindness and attention to detail made a significant difference in my recovery process.
