I am very lucky…

• We recognised my symptoms and took action quickly
• I live close to the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary where both the facilities and the medical team are top notch
• The facilities were available when I needed them… I didn’t have to wait
• A year ago I wouldn’t have been able to have my procedure when I did – it has only been open 24 / 7 for about 6 months
• Things went smoothly, no complications, in and out.

I’m a gambler, happy to take a chance, but I wouldn’t want to have to rely on the same level of luck again.
