Denis Campbell, health policy editor at the Guardian, exclusively reported on Michael Walsh, a shoulder surgeon who was sacked after allegations that he had harmed patients by performing surgery on them unnecessarily or badly.

Share your experiences

We would like to speak to people who have experienced any kind of surgical accident. What did you originally go to the hospital for? What went wrong? What kind of impact did the accident have on you? Did you make an official complaint? Was there any investigation? Did you receive any compensation?

You can get in touch by filling in the encrypted form below, anonymously if you wish. Only the Guardian will see your responses and one of our journalists may be in touch for more information.
