Verbatim
“Patients spend less time in hospital, often going home the same day as surgery. It's safer than conventional surgical practices with fewer complications and risks and it means we can see more patients in need of a surgical solution more quickly.”
“We fully appreciate that for some patients, this will not be the first time they'll be having their appointment postponed and we appreciate how frustrating this is.”
“Industrial action does place considerable pressure on services which are already stretched. As with previous strikes we'd really appreciate the support of our local communities.”
