I had a Pyogenic Granuloma due to pregnancy. Over the weekend it had got really bad and kept opening, bleeding and getting bigger. I went to a different hospital A and E on Saturday and left after 5 hours feeling totally ignored and very upset.
I called Eastbourne Maxillofacial on Monday as I did not trust that the referral had been made (I don’t think it was), they took the detailed then called back for me to come to clinic the next day.
Went in Tuesday morning at 9.15 preparing to wait for hours to be seen and for a fight to get it removed. Seen straight away.
The lovely Dr knew exactly what I had, how to treat it, how upsetting it is etc. I was taken straight in to have it removed. The Surgury was clear, everything explained, lovely staff making me feel safe and supported. So grateful it has been dealt with as baby due in 4 weeks and I was terrified I would still be dealing with it then.
Thank you to all the lovely team that helped me.
"Thank you!"
