Operation am 29.12.2021
Sehr geehrter Herr Dr. Schenker,
am Mittwoch, 29. Dezember 2021 wurde ich per Notarzt ins Klinikum Solingen eingeliefert und am Nachmittag von Ihnen und Ihrem Team am Dünndarm operiert. Für diese erfolgreiche Operation und schnelle Hilfe möchte ich mich persönlich bei Ihnen und Ihrem Team bedanken. Ich hatte wohl großes Glück, dass Sie den Dünndarm wieder in seine normale Position legen konnten und auch kein PROSTAVASIN meines früheren Arbeitgebers Schwarz Pharma einsetzen mussten.
Der Dank meinerseits gilt auch dem Pflegepersonal auf der Intensivstation wie auch Privat-Station in der 5. Etage des Klinikums sowie dem Solinger Notdienst und ganz speziell der Notärztin, die die richtige Entscheidung für die Einlieferung ins Klinikum Solingen veranlasste.
Richten Sie bitte allen Beteiligten nochmals meinen Dank und meine Grüße aus. In der Zwischenzeit geht es mir wieder gut und die Narben am Bauch sind fast verheilt.
Ihnen alles Gute!
