"My husbands biopsy"

About: Trafford General Hospital / Urology

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

My husband went for a biopsy, The nurse was extremely helpful; she gave very clear and precise information.

The only downside was that we didn't receive a follow up letter until three weeks after the appointment. But, when we phoned to ask about it we were able to speak to her and she remembered who we were and found our notes. it was said that the delay was because the secretary had not caught up with paperwork.
