I have had to suffer stress incontinence getting worse in my 40s, to a level where I needed to wear a nappy to go for a walk - and with ADHD my mental health depends on me being physically active! I saught help through the trust and met with a consultant who didn't listen - and in the hope of sorting out my situation I ended up with a front and rear prolapse along and part hysterectemy walking out of that hospital in a markedly worse situation than when I walked in. I stopped going on long fresh walks - that I had previously done practically every morning. I had to wear a heavy duty nappy when I did and the discomfort, shame and self loathing marred the experience. Dr Gallagher has turned my situation round. He listened and I felt heard. Most importantly he saw my situation through to an extremely non intrusive remedy of injecting filler that has totally cured my stress incontinence. I walked out of Royal Surrey last week - sorted! I cant believe how my situation has completely turned around. I am utterly and totally grateful! Apart from feeling like I was in competent hands - and the result speaks for itself - I am grateful also for feeling more than a slab of meat with Dr Gallagher - I felt listened to and most importantly cared for.
