I was seen at short notice and given the opportunity to discuss at length not only my immediate stoma issue but also stoma issues generally.

Thanks for this. It is important that we allow time to discuss general issues as well as any immediate problems.

Andrew has always treated me with care, respect and humour. He was the nurse who initially saw me 5 years ago when I had my stoma operation and I am pleased to have him caring for me again. He keeps me informed of the treatment progress and reassures me that all is well.
