"I developed a problem with swallowing food and drink."

About: Broomfield Hospital / General surgery

(as a service user),

Around this time last year, I began having a problem eating a meal. I often had indigestion or worse brought food up again. Just after Christmas I decided to visit my local GP who set in motion a fast track investigation. 

Given that the pandemic took hold whilst the tests were being done all I can say is that I can not fault the service provided by the consultant who oversaw the investigation and the Upper GI team that performed the surgery that was needed to reduce my problem.

I have learned since that Broomfield hospital is a centre for  this type of keyhole surgery, which was very fortunate for me as I live nearby.

Many thanks to all concerned for their excellent service.
