"Never attend this hospital"

About: Weston General Hospital / Accident and emergency

Woke up from sleep with pins and needles in my hands and finding it hard to breath. Decided just before midnight to go to WSM A&E. Arrived just after 00:00 was seen within 20 mins by what is supposedly a qualified medical practitioner, to be told I need an ECG. At 6am I walked out none the wiser to anything and not even having been seen by a doctor. My conclusion being if they can't be be bothered to even speak to me let alone see me, they can't think I am in any risk so why should I bother staying and continue to have to sit on the most uncomfortable seats ever made.
