Had to take my 8 year old for 2 teeth out following a referral. Pre-op was fantastic but couldn't say the same for post - op. We were called through to recovery, where I was asked to pick my son up on the trolley, he was extremely distressed and in pain. Had to sit then with my son on my lap to wait for him to come round, only for him to be asked to stand and walk. Despite him still being wobbly was told okay for him to go, approximately 10 mins after coming out of theatre, yet all the leaflets say they can go home after an hour!! I felt really sorry for all the kids in the waiting room as this was directly opposite the recovery room and they had to listen to the other distressed kids.
