Surgeon Ignored Serious Infection

Following surgery I developed a Serious Infection. I was seen by my GP, Urgent Care, SAU, and various Consultants, Registrars and Nurses throughout my admission to hospital which included 4 lots of IV antibiotics a day for 5 days. The only person who kept telling me on repeat that I was fit to go home - when I clearly wasn't - was my Surgeon.
