Thank you for your feedback - I am sorry that you had a problem during your post-surgery recovery. Have you consulted your GP regarding a re-referral for an opinion?

It may also be a suggestion that you contact the secretary of the operating surgeon to arrange a review.

If you would like to discuss this further please contact us via Patient Relations 01922 656463 or via email patientrelations@walsallhealthcare.nhs.uk

Thanks Garry

hi thanks for response I will call tomoz as I'm not a happy bunny n it has put me off going for any more opps as this was meant to be done so I can get my health back n I have been in a lot of pain I feel I should be compensated for it not working and the way I was treated while in hospital eg being left on nil by mouth for 2 days n no food for 3 days
