I have no complaints with the NHS at all. Last year, 14th. Oct. I had a PSA blood test which is a test for prostate cancer and it turned out to be quite high. I had a bone scan on 28th. Oct. followed by a biospy on 30th. Oct. and saw a consultant on 16th. Nov. who confirmed that I had prostate cancer and commenced treatment immediately. So from blood test and all the other tests to treatment took four weeks. Not bad in my book.
The hip replacement that I had in June took a little longer. From seeing the consultant to having the operation took about three and a half months. I received a letter on discharge from the hospital telling me that the operation had cost £13,000 and to look after it giving me a list of things to do and not to do along with some exercises. The hip operation was the best thing I have ever had done as I had been in agony for 12 months with sciatica and pain fron the hip degeneration. I have got no pain at all now.
The prostate treatment took place at Kent & Canterbury and the hip operation at William Harvey at Ashford. I have nothing but praise for both hospitals.
Thank you N.H.S.
