NHS sent an urgent referral 3 months later
I was referred on by my GP for a 2 week referral and in the time waiting I went private and was seen and operated on very quickly. The operation was okay. It didn't go to plan and they ended up doing open surgery. I was discharged from them after 2 days with no dressing plan in place. I had complications from the operation but the hospital is looking into it. They handed me over to the tissue viability service due to the hole but everything is now healing better. The NHS later sent me an urgent referral appointment 3 months after my cancer diagnosis.
