Summary
Miss C complained that the board failed to recognise and treat problems with her nose. Miss C was seen by consultants at both Wishaw General Hospital and Monklands Hospital but felt that her problems were ignored.
We took independent advice from an ear, nose and throat surgeon. We found that the assessments and conclusions reached by the consultants who reviewed Miss C were reasonable, and took into account her concerns. We considered that the treatment provided was in line with the findings of the assessments carried out. Therefore, we did not uphold the complaint.
