"Lack of service"

About: Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital

(as the patient),

I had to go to Queen Elizabeth hospital for a check up and so far I've had a pleasant experience of the hospital and staff. I was wheeled around to the discharge lounge where I found the person at the desk to be harsh and brash.  I was booked in and ushered to a room with maybe 15 chairs in it to wait for my transport. Whilst I was waiting 3 other patients arrived to be discharged. Only one patient was made a cup of tea and the rest of us were ignored.
