Full decision

Summary

Mr C complained that the board had not provided him with appropriate care and treatment for pain in his knee and thigh.

We took independant advice from a GP. We found that appropriate investigations had been carried out into both issues, appropriate referrals to other services had been made, and pain had been managed in line with guidance. We did not uphold Mr C's complaint.
