Hospital appointment

Posted By Bennytheball

"Hospital appointment"

About: North Manchester General Hospital / General surgery Royal Oldham Hospital / General surgery

(as the patient),

I recieved a letter from Pennine Acute Hospitals to attend an appointment on 14/7/15 at the Lucy Pugh Outpatients Dept at North Manchester Hospital. There is no Lucy Pugh ward there! However when I spoke to reception, they told me that this mistake keeps happening. I was going to find out if I still had cancer and can do without this thoughtless incompetence from the NHS.
