"Brilliant diagnosis and surgery"

About: Royal Preston Hospital / Gynaecology

(as the patient),

Couldn't praise Dr Wood enough. He listened very sympathetically to my desire to avoid a hysterectomy (was urged to have one by consultant elsewhere) and then staged my treatment carefully. Ended up with ovaries removed by keyhole and no need for further surgery. The operation went brilliantly, the cyst turned out to be non-malignant, I avoided the hysterectomy and was fully recovered in 3 weeks. Thank you to Dr Wood and the nurses on the ward afterwards.

Thank you for taking the time to tell of us of your experience when you were recently cared for in our gynaecology department. Please be assured that your kind comments have been shared with Mr Wood and staff on the ward.
