Please accept my sincere apologies this is certainly not the standard of care we expect for our patients. We are always striving to improve our communication and we are working with staff around behaviours and values expected from staff members. Without your specific details It is difficult to address which Doctor and clinic you attended.

If you would like this to be addressed can I please request that you contact Helen Howard Head of Patient experience on 0161 922 5352 or email Helen.Howard@tgh.nhs.uk so that this issue can be sorted out for you.

Director of Nursing

‘’Would you like to help the hospital to improve its services further? We are currently looking for patients and carers to become involved in a development called “Patient Stories”. We want to know more about our services from the point of view of those who received them – what was good, bad, what could be improved, what should be changed. Want to know more about what’s involved? Please contact John Goodenough, Director of Nursing at
