At my own request I asked the doctor to have a test done at the MST for the diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and its severity. A test that was done very correctly was neatly discussed with a conclusion that surgical intervention was the best option. (I was on par with the neurologist)

A second appointment 1 week later with the neurosurgeon was short but sweet, I came in gave him a hand and say that I wanted to give a firm hand but that this would not work, he takes my hand presses on the sore spot I start to squeak and he asks if it hurts, I indicate yes, and he answers that is all I wanted to know, because if you would not have responded to that pain stimulus, then I may be doing an operation that might be remedied differently. but this is clear.

Wonderful doctor, no nonsense, no fuss, tight and clear, I like that I know right away where I stand. The waiting time for the procedure was 3 months, but given the seriousness I was placed at the top of the list and I could come for the procedure within 12 days.

On the day of the CTS Release intervention 11:50 am inside 12:00 pm outside again. With the message that I could still suffer from it and perhaps experience pain. I had expected this to happen, but as the anesthetic disappeared, the feeling in my hand was a lot more pleasant than before and I was back at work the same evening, albeit in an appropriate way, never bothered for a moment.

I have very different (bizarre) experiences with the 2 hospitals in Hengelo and Almelo, those 2 never again.
