My husband was given a date in April for his cholycestectomy. In preparation for this he had to attend a pre-op assesment. This was a total shambles - 4 different members of staff and 3 different rooms and 2. 5 hrs later we were finally done.
10 days before his operation date, we were informed that it had been cancelled. A futher date was given.
This again has been cancelled and now means a further shambles of pre-op assessment. We are now pressing to have this done at our GPs, as not all tests are required which I know for fact.
Whether we will succeed, time will tell and I am not holding my breath on our new date.
"Cancelled appointments, and building frustration"
