The patient experience
Share this post
Your task: watch this interview in which we meet Alan Hyde, a liver transplant patient who was treated in Birmingham. Alan is a fantastic advocate for liver transplantation and acts as a member of our Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) panel as well as a volunteer who helps counsel current patients awaiting transplantation. Here Alan discusses how he came to need a liver transplant and what it was like to be on the waiting list.
If you would like to find out more information about the great work of the PPI group in Birmingham please follow the link at the bottom of this step.
Alan’s story is fascinating so do share your thoughts with other learners in the comments area.
