Routine operation

"Routine operation"

About: Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh at Little France / General Surgery

(as the patient),

I had a hernia repair operation and asked the surgeon and team to remove a fatty lump at the same time.   They agreed to do that - 2 operations for the price of one! Surgical team had to cover after care on the ward due to staff sickness.   Excellent, personal  care from beginning to end.
