Aurore Bouty from the Urology team. Earlier this year my granddaughter had a problem with her Stoma. Aurore went out of her way with emails and phone calls as follow up in the following weeks to make sure everything was tracking along well. Couldn’t have asked for any better help and support during this time. The Stomaltherapy team were terrific support as well.
