On the 26/02/18 I was rushed to Wexham Park Hospital suffering from a postpartum haemorrhage 3 weeks after giving birth. Having had no complications during labour, it was a stress free 6.5 hour labour in a birth centre via a birthing pool and beanbag! I didn’t even need any stitches, so 3 weeks afterwards to suddenly haemorrhage was incredibly frightening. Luckily for me Mr Garcia was on call that night and was my Guardian Angel, he looked after me and my husband and Mum and Dad, making sure we all knew what was going on and he quickly and super efficiently got me into Theatre to operate to stop the bleed and because he was so quick thinking and so experienced it was a success and the bleeding stopped without having to resort to blood transfusions or worse case scenario an emergency hysterectomy, his quick thinking and acting minimised and stabled a very scary situation. He was so calm and kind and I will forever be grateful for all he did, not only is he a gifted surgeon but he is an amazing human being whose dedication and care for what he does and all his patients and their families is outstanding and second to none! It’s more than a job to him, it’s a calling, a true vocation as he went above and beyond to care for me and make sure my family were ok too, Im so lucky he was working that night and I will forever remember all he did.
