My husband's appointment with his consultant: Delayed by appr. 45 mins as the consultant was repeatedly seen trying to find batteries for some hand-held device for their previous patient. Waiting in a corridor that looked like something out of a third-world horror movie: scuffed dirty walls, bashed in doors, broken soiled furniture... When we were finally seen by the consultant they could not get their antiquated PC to work so had no access to any records or scans. The appointment was supposed to be about a previously taken MRI scan by the way. The consultant did some rather basic tests (knee reflex etc), probably to give the impression to be doing something. Then we were dismissed with the promise that they would view the scan and write a letter whithin two weeks. Four weeks later we still had not heard anything so we had to contact the hospital for a reminder.
