You may have been referred to the Dietitian’s for dietary advice following colorectal surgery. This may have included the formation of a colostomy or ileostomy.
As you are aware the NHS is currently under immense pressure due to the current COVID 19 pandemic. During this period we are not able to provide our usual service as we need to prioritise to reduce the risk to our patients. In view of this, we unfortunately are unable to offer you an appointment in our gastroenterology clinic. Should the national position change we will be able to resume our service as normal and you can self-refer back into our service.
In the meantime please find some self-help guidance link attached.
