"Diabetic amputation"

A review of Royal Victoria Hospital by Paul Campbell written on Tuesday 26th of October 2021

Toward the end of August I was admitted to ward 7C at the RVH due to an infection in my big toe.

Unbeknownst to me the bone was exposed underneath the toe and subsequently I was informed that the toe would have to come off.

This was on the Thursday and I had the operation first thing on the Monday morning.

During my stay I was treated with the utmost respect by both doctors and nurses.
