Had a biopsy Dec 22. Jan 23 diagnosis of 'severe dysplasia' of tongue and plan made for laser treatment.

Was told looking at a date 2 months away. Chase up phone calls said the laser machine was broken and they were having difficulty finding a laser.

Phoned PALS who told me a couple of days later a machine had been purchased and was waiting to be installed.

Now it's six months since my biopsy. It wasn't until my dentist referred me (AGAIN)  last week That I got an appt with maxillo facial dpt again. Was seen yesterday and the consultant was surprised and shocked t my dysplasia patch which had grown and rushed out of the room to get me another appt with the oncology surgeon for 2 days later. He said, "This has to be removed."

My concern is this -if the hospital knew there was a broken laser why didn't they advise me to have the procedure at a different hospital?

Why have I not been given regular checks to monitor progression of severe dysplasia? 

Am I a political pawn and have I been used in order for my PALS complaint to get the dpt a new laser. 

Have the dpt been negligent? 

Thanks in advance, Jennifer.
