Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust in touch with man over care allegations
Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust has written to a Shrewsbury man who made allegations about his care.
Kevin Ratcliffe claimed he had been diagnosed with testicular cancer only to discover years later that he had never suffered from the disease.
A statement issued by Trust Medical Director, Dr Edwin Borman said: "In relation to the article concerning Mr Kevin Ratcliffe, from Shrewsbury, which appeared on 20 July 2013, I have reviewed Mr Ratcliffe's notes and spoken to the clinicians involved in his care.
"I have found no evidence that he has ever been diagnosed with, or treated for, testicular cancer by this Trust, nor have we received any complaint or claim from Mr Ratcliffe about this matter. I have written to Mr Ratcliffe to invite him to discuss this with me.
"During the process of reviewing this matter the Trust has not identified any issues that should cause concern for any other patients."
Mr Ratcliffe was unavailable for comment.
