"New stent required"

About: Arrowe Park Hospital / Cardiology Broadgreen Hospital / General surgery

(as the patient),

The specialist staff told me I had indigestion. I'd had a stent inserted in December 2011. Apparently 1 in 4 stents fail in first 3/4 months. But I was told I had indigestion and was prescribed without seeing a doctor.

The staff at Broad Green Heart Hospital had a good laugh at Arrowe Park as they fitted a new stent.

I considered taking things further but life is too short.
