NHS Strikes Cause Anger and Fear Among Patients Due to Operation Delays
Patients across England express frustration and concern as NHS strikes lead to the cancellation and postponement of crucial surgeries, leaving individuals like Sarah, Andrew, and Claudia in limbo without clear rescheduled dates. The delays are causing physical and emotional distress, with fears of permanent injury and prolonged suffering.
Sarah, a patient from the north-west of England, said she was due to have a hysterectomy - an operation to remove her uterus - on Monday but it had been cancelled for a second time.
Andrew Mundy, 58, from Lincoln, expressed fears that repeated delays to his tendon surgery could leave him permanently injured.
Claudia, 44, from Maidstone, said she had been waiting for more than a year to have her gallbladder removed. Her operation has also been cancelled.
