Paediatric surgery services

The request was successful.

Dear Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust,

Does your trust perform elective general paediatric surgery, e.g. orchidopexy for undescended testes, inguinal herniotomy and circumcisions?

If so, who performs these operations, e.g. Adult surgeon with paediatric interest, paediatric surgeon from another trust?

If adult surgeon, what is their primary speciality (e.g. vascular, urology, upper GI, colorectal)?

How many operating sessions of general paediatric surgery are performed every week in your trust?

How many surgeons perform general paediatric operations?

What is the age cut-off for elective paediatric operations (lowest age)?

What paediatric population do you cover?

Yours faithfully,

P Singh
