The urology department has very long waiting lists for any attention required.
I have been using the department for over 10 years now, I have had four bladder operations there and have noticed, not only the standard of care has deteriorated but attention to patients has become strained.
I am currently awaiting an appointment to see a consultant for many months now. My doctor says I just have to wait.
I understand the department only has one consultant when they should have five!
It’s worth some investigating. I believe they should be exposed.
I had an appointment cancelled at the last moment last year because the consultant was ill, and there wasn’t anybody else to see me.
I know it has been a very bad time for the hospital this year and we are all grateful for what they have done, but the urology department is a disgrace.
Thanks for your time.
