The service and the back up was just incredible both before the surgery and all the testing and everything they did. During the surgery and around the day of the surgery there was incredible support and after it they really, really looked after you. Glenn Carp, the surgeon really kept an eye on you. You had his number to take with you to contact him should you be concerned in any shape or form, or should there be anything after the surgery. So you really, really felt in safe hands.
