Hi there,

We've received the following media request.

Thanks,
MNHQ

I'm looking to speak to a UK-based parent who decided to pay to get their child's tonsils out. It's for an article looking at why the NHS rarely offers the procedure these days. I'd be keen to ask them: a) Did they try to get the op on the NHS first, and b) are they happy they went through with it?

They'd need to be happy to be named and pictured. And I'd need to speak to them ASAP on the phone, today or tomorrow morning ideally.

If you'd like to contribute please contact Amy on [email protected]
