Cardiac surgery and aftercare

Posted By maydon

"Cardiac surgery and aftercare"

About: Golden Jubilee National Hospital / Cardiac Surgery University Hospital Hairmyres / Cardiology University Hospital Wishaw / Cardiology (Ward 4)

(as the patient),

I have had two stents fitted, and after further tests, a double by-pass operation.

I am more than happy with the fact that my medical problems were discovered, 

and rectified before I suffered a heart attack, and related complications.

During this time I had excellent treatment and aftercare involving surgeons, and nursing staff at the golden jubilee hospital,,hairmyers hospital, and wishaw general hospital.

The nursing staff at wishaw general cardiac department were most helpful, providing information, and answering questions along with cardiac rehabilitation.
