From 6 October 2014 inpatient vascular surgery is transferring from University Hospitals Bristol and on 13 October from Royal United Hospital Bath, to the Brunel building at Southmead Hospital.
These changes will bring together specialist teams from across the region to improve the quality of inpatient surgical care you receive.University Hospitals Bristol and Royal United Hospital Bath will continue to have a vascular service provided by the network.
You can still see your consultant for an outpatient appointment,have most investigations (CT and MRI scans) and your follow-up care will be local. In addition there will be new specialist nurse-led clinics.We understand this means a change for you and your relatives or carers, but where possible you’ll still be looked after by the same team that you are used to.Royal United
