Lumbar puncture

"Lumbar puncture"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Day Surgery

(as the patient),

My lumbar puncture was extremely difficult due to a curvature in my spine and took a few attempts. As you can imagine it was uncomfortable. Doctor Frew and Robertson however were incredibly professional and did a great job of keeping me calm.

If I ever had another procedure I would hope it was performed by them.
