Anything else?
I had to wait for 4 hours to see the doctor. At one point a nurse put her head around the corner and said you will have to see wait to see the doctor. Everyone else was seen before me. When i finally saw the doctor i had to stay for another 2hours while i was put on an antibiotic drip. I heard the nurses say at one point that i had already breached so it didn't matter. There was apparently only 2 doctors working which means they were lying to me to make me wait or they were very understaffed. However the doctor was very nice which makes a change from them being rude normally. I have been treated badly in the past by a&e staff who don't seem to understand self harming at all. I also think that they need better chairs as after sitting ion them for 6 hours they can be very uncomfortable. The nurses don't seem to care about privacy and say things about patients loudly and can be heard by everyone.
"long wait"
