🔍 How can we better support amputation patients—psychologically—before surgery?
A new article by Dr Esmée Hanna explores the findings from a 4-year study into how patients are prepared for life after amputation, and how we can do better.
🙌We’re also excited to launch this piece as the first in our new Surgery for all content section—created for anyone with an interest in surgery, not just surgeons.
🧠 Insightful. Compassionate. Essential reading.
