"Walk in clinic for children "

Awful experience made to feel like i was just worrying about my child being ill after 4 days having a temperature of 40c said his ears were so sore and his tonsils were sore as he is prone to ear infections they refused antibiotics as he had no discharge. After attending another dr who then gave us antibiotics as i had enough of my child being in pain, not eating or sleeping.

Later that day we attended Frimley park after day 5 due to a high temperature and not drinking and in pain with his throat he looked dehydrated luckily he was ok and was given throat spray. Bad experience and was made to feel like im being silly when i know my son! Oh yes after the second visit they said to visit on Friday and they will do a wee sample!! When clearly it's his ears and throat i feel if he was given antibiotics it wouldn't of got this bad. Just because there isn't discharge in his ear it's still very dangerous with a silent ear infection... makes no sense as he has had 4 ear infections in the past and has been given medication for it!! Absolutely awful especially for a poor child who is only 1 years old to be left to suffer in pain!!! You should be ashamed Dr was unprofessional making me feel like im being silly and not listened to and patronising saying "he's fine"
