Not at all cheeky misskh. I agree with CLKD, patient liaison is part of a medical secretary's job. And you need to know for sure. If it's unnecessary, you don't want to have to get psyched up for a smear test, take time out for it, get undressed & have a speculum exam in order to find out whether your cervix is still intact. As you say, if you don't need a smear test, it also wastes an appointment someone else could use & the time of the surgery staff. The surgeon should have written to your GP detailing exactly what procedures were involved, so I'm a bit surprised they couldn't pull up the relevant documentation. I hope you manage to speak to his secretary soon. Do ask her to send through clarification to your surgery as well, in case they don't feel they can take your word for it.
