"Communication and promises"

Husband with previous coronary history was not well experiencing similar symptoms so we called an ambulance who decided he had to be admitted.

They arrived quickly and the investigation was thorough led by a paramedic and a student ambulance colleague.

On arrival after initial tests he was admitted into AMU with assurances that he would see a cardiologist, and there he stayed for the next three days. 

This was obviously caused by the weekend and by Monday he was interviewed by the initial doctor he had met when he arrived who was surprised to hear that he was still waiting. 

Eventually a cardiologist arrived planning to send him for a CT scan.

He is still waiting 2 days later. The promises seem to be unsubstantiated.

I am disappointed that promises and plans seem to be just flannel and appreciate the NHS are very stretched however it would improve an otherwise superior service if we had a more certain plan in place.
