"Cancelled operations"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Trauma & orthopaedics

(as the patient),

Had my first pre assessment in June 2017 and attended joint school in January to be informed date for surgery would be 4-5 months away date for surgery arranged in November 2017.

Not to be, op cancelled due to no bed

Further date arranged early Dec, only to be cancelled yet again.

Been informed private options available but no date as yet.

Feel bitterly disappointed as a patient and NHS employee
