"Gastroenterology appointment"

About: Huddersfield Royal Infirmary

I have a severe liver condition, currently under the wing of Jimmy's Hospital in Leeds, despite living in Huddersfield. During a stay at the HRi, a Consultant identified what condition I had (H.E,). They were very happy to be in a position to tell me and took the time necessary to explain the condition and answer any questions.

Great appointment, great person, thank you.
