Surgeries conducted by non-surgeons
Dear Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust,
Between January 2010 and the current date, how many major surgeries have been led/conducted by non-surgeons (including SCPs.)
Could you also confirm for how many of these was the patient informed that their surgery would be conducted by someone who was not qualified as a surgeon, and whether these surgeries would be covered by the hospitals medical negligence insurance.
Yours faithfully,
O Williams
