I had my transplant in October 2015. I have had numerous follow up clinic appointments. I will for the rest of my life. The staff at Leeds St James transplant unit is unbelievable. I was on Becket Wing.
The Surgeons, Doctors, nurses and auxiliaries and student nurses, radiology staff, porters, cleaners, catering staff and clinic staff were and continue to be superb.
I was very ill and in desperate need of my transplant and when I was sent for I was treated like royalty.
No question or concern I or my partner raised was ignored, or brushed away. The care I recieved was fabulous. In spite of the dreadful state I was in when I arrived I was out within 3 weeks. And my recovery has been great since.
How do thank these people for doing what they do?
Thank you does not cover it, yet when I say that to the team they say... "Its ok. Its our job."
Great work. Thank you.
