1:52Now PlayingAndy Macklin was in his hospital gown waiting for an operation when he was told that his procedure had been postponed.
In total, he says he had four appointments for surgery cancelled at the last minute in place of a later one.
Andy told Sky News' Ashish Joshi that he "doesn't know" if he could go through the same treatment again - but that he doesn't blame individual doctors or nurses for going on strike.
