Brought in by ambulance. No tests, no x rays, no scans nothing. Kept waiting 5 hours for nothing and told my problems were medication reaction only.
After 2 months it was found (not by Wansbeck) that I had suffered a STROKE but Wansbeck could not find that because they ignored the required tests.
Now under care of Hexham General I am told recovery will be very poor due to unacceptable delay caused by the doctor at Wansbeck.
