"Long Waiting"

About: Vale of Leven General Hospital / Orthopaedics

(as the patient),

Unfortunately I have been waiting over 2 years for a hip replacement and during this time the arthritis that is affecting my hip has spread to my back.  Recently retired and unable to enjoy my time with my wife as I am in so much pain and don’t know where to turn.

Dear Mcgcm76

I am sorry to hear about your wait for surgery and how this is impacting on your quality of life. I would be grateful if you could contact my colleague, Jackie McKenna, who is the Lead Nurse for Orthopaedics. You can contact Jackie @ Jackie.Mckenna@ggc.scot.nhs.uk Can you please include your name and date of birth?

Thank you

Nicole
