"Care at North Staff second to none"

I've recently spent 12 days in University Hospital of North Staffordshire for resection of GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumour).

My care was second to none. I spent 4 nights in SSCU and the remainder on Ward 109 under the care of Mr Beardsmore.

When I started to vomit on the Friday a week after my operation he immediately arranged for me to have a CT scan that day and before 5pm the same day was personally at my bedside telling me everything was ok.

From the top to the bottom I have no complaints whatsoever except for the food which could perhaps be a little more appetising for patients after Upper GI Surgery.
