Contradictory and conflicting written aftercare advice given out - when I tried to highlight the discrepancies I was ignored and talked over - the staff appear to have little or no training in dealing with distressed patients who are on the Autistic Spectrum. Had I followed Warwick Hospital's instructions I would have been in more pain and discomfort for several days longer than was necessary . Thankfully Royal Berkshire Hospitals and Southampton University Hospital NHS trusts - and the Royal College of Surgeons - to name but a few -have far superior aftercare leaflets available online to download and this made the recovery process much easier and less painful than it otherwise would have been. The hospital is dirty. The surgeons and theatre team were great - the rest of it was alarmingly bad.
"the worst aftercare leaflet of any English NHS..."
