Waiting list concerns chronic pain woman
Speaking at an NHS Western Sussex Hospitals Trust board meeting last Thursday, Beryl Ferrers-Guy, of Southview Road, Southwick, said there was a 10 month waiting list consisting of 200 patients for the service.
Beryl said: “The chronic pain clinic is valued by the patients – I take my hat off to the staff at Worthing because they are marvellous – but I am very concerned that it is now the poor relation of the hospital.

Beryl injured her spine after falling in a horse riding incident as a child. She has had to live with the resulting pain ever since.
