"Constant bladder infections"

About: North Devon District Hospital / Urology

(as a service user),

Having suffered from very regular urine tract infections I sought help. After various courses of antibiotics from my doctors ( who by the way are fantastic) I was sent to Barnstaple for further investigation where a small benign tumour was detected in my bladder wall.

Within a very short time I was recalled and Mr JWH Evans removed it.

I have recently been for a post procedure follow up and have had no problem since.

The whole experience from doctors to investigation to resolution was handled not only in the most professional and expert way but with the utmost compassion, dignity and friendliness.
