"Angiogram / angioplasty procedures"

About: Scunthorpe General Hospital

Firstly the positive; excellent staff care and attention in PIU from the nurses, especially From two in particular, during my angioplasty op from all the nursing team and in after care post my angioplasty op, everyone a credit to the hospital. However, and not a reflection on the staff was the fact that for an important health matter, my angiogram was postponed once and my angioplasty twice, the second time, I was already gowned and ready on the PIU ward.....not acceptable. This situation, not exclusive to my case must be improved, but fear increasing pressures on the nhs and this hospital, may never rectify this? That said, the care, patience and support from the teams during my treatments was excellent and would recommend anyone to have these procedures at this hospital.

Hi, many thanks for all your very positive feedback! Regarding the postponement of your angioplasty, your comments have been shared with the general manager for surgery and we can only apologise for the delays. There are all sorts of reasons why this could happen, and if you wish you could ask for it to be looked into further by contacting our patient advice and liaison team on nlg-tr.pals@nhs.net or (01724) 290132. Best wishes, Sarah Mainprize
